Ben Vrackie

Route: Ben Vrackie, near Pitlochry

Corbetts: Ben Vrackie

Date walked: 12/04/2025

Time taken: 4.3 hours

This was my second time doing Ben Vrackie, great sunny day, from the begining you start to walk gradually upwards, some parts do level out slighlty but you are always climbing, the views upwards are great looking back down to Pitlochry and down the river Tummel, when you reach the small loch i recomend a rest before you climb the final ascent as it is quit a steep climb to the top, good for the legs and tests your strength in the legs, when you reach the summit the views from the top are spectactular and well worth the views.
