Ben Venue 🏴 from Loch Achray (The Trossachs, Scotland)

Ben Venue is a popular walk and can be accessed from either Ledard farm track at Loch Ard, via the Beinn an Fhogharaidh ridge, or from the car park at the head of Loch Achray both routes are approximately 3.1 mile in length. A sign in the forestry warns that the mountain should not be approached or descended directly to or from Loch Katrine, as the slopes on this side are very steep and littered with dangerous cliffs. Several indistinct paths do exist on this side of the hill however.
Ben Venue has two summits a short distance apart. The triangulation pillar on the eastern summit has a height of 727(m) and this height is often given as the height of Ben Venue as a whole. However the western summit is shown to be slightly higher, 729(m), on the Ordnance Survey's 1:25000 map. From either summit on a clear day the view extend to the Firth of Forth, the Clyde and Isle of Arran and the Paps of Jura. Good views can be seen along Loch Katrine, Ben A'an, Ben More, Stob Binnein, Ben Lomond and the Arrochar Alps.

Hi Andy, yet another quality video mate, it looks like an amazing area to hike in. Billy Bob was definitely enjoying all that water, love the way he digs out a pebble and takes it away 😂👍. Really looking forward to seeing the next instalment, cheers Glyn.

A grand wee hill is Ben Venue, you walked through where I parked up for 3 nights when I was in the area, handy for the dam road and into the forest. Another cracking video mate.

Another great video, guys. Definitely thinking about popping over the border and having a few days there. Lovely drone footage - we also like the Music - sounds like it could be from Gladiator or Braveheart or something? ATB Brian and Jill 😊😊

Super video of what looks like a beautiful walk - another one to put on the list! I really enjoy those walks which pass through a variety of habitats, it keeps the interest all the way. Lovely to hear the birdsong in the background through the woods (over your heavy breathing!) 😆and a video wouldn't be complete now without Billy doing a bit of rockpooling! Apologies for the late reviewing of your latest batch of videos - have been in an unseasonally cold Speyside for a couple of weeks, so just catching up now.

Thanks Irene .. my Scottish videos never do as well on KZread as the Lakes but that'll never deter us (that's not what it's all about) we just love it up there finding new Hills and new adventures is a tonic...so thank you for watching the Scottish ones and the lovely feedback very much appreciated 😊 Tek care stay safe ATVB Andy and The ⭐ 🙏🏻
