Glas Bheinn from Kinlochleven

Glas Bheinn is a shy and retiring Corbett, remaining hidden from most viewpoints as it rises shapelessly from the wild moors east of Kinlochleven. It provides an enjoyable walk, however, with unfamiliar perspectives on the surrounding higher peaks.

Terrain

Stalkers paths for much of the distance, though parts of these are extremely wet underfoot. Pathless heathery ground on the hill itself.
