If you managed those 2 then you should find these a bit easier I think. Have you seen our video of Ben Lawers? kzread.info/dash/bejne/mZyjpZJyh8yqhaQ.html I got a great cloud inversion that day.

Gorgeous views from the ridge line. Have a great weekend 😀, Brian and Sah

I’m always amazed by how far you can see from the summits on a clear day. Glad to have places like this so close to home.

Frodo and Sam would be proud! Well done guys :)

Thanks Calum. Don’t think it’ll be the last quote either.

Lolling forward to watching more of your hikes..

Thanks Jason!

Good memories of a great day on the ridge. Attempted Ben Lawers the following week and had to turn back. Respect the conditions!

It’s great to look back at that day, felt great to be out again. It looked like the right decision to turn back, mountains will still be there next week!

Welcome back gents!

It’s great to be back out in the big hills for a change!

Another fantastic vid guys, superb walk!

Possibly one to get your son out on? Not too far to walk and not too much ascent. Can always just turn around at the top.

Nice one guys! Good to see you back out. Paul

You have multiple options for this as well. Do you think you'd try the circuit or go with an out and back?

@@HighlandHikers not sure yet will need to refer to my munro book and map out routes etc. Lawers and Ghlas will hopefully get done this year as well. Managed Ben Challum yesterday and boy was that one never to be forgotten, high wind and snow that felt like I was being peltered by stones!

I can imagine there was no relief from the conditions either until the walk was over. Weather doesn’t look great for the foreseeable either unfortunately.

Good stuff lads , its a good walk ..it blew a hoolie when i done it a few years ago ..cheers Stevie

It was too windy that day to be able to fly the drone sadly, but not enough to make the walk unenjoyable, although I think going by how excited we were to be out again the rain would have had to have been horizontal to dampen our spirits.

Great vid 👌

Hi their. Is this a very straight forward path? I went up Ben lawers and Ben Ghlas the other week and loved it. Felt the path is very well kept. Will be going up myself so just want to know if the path is visible. Thinking of going up next Tuesday.

The path is very easy to follow in good conditions although we’d always recommend having a map to help.

Always thought this could be difficult however your video makes it look like i would manage it. Im not keen on scrambling much so good tip about the path to avoid it is appreciated. Thanks

Glad you found it useful Craig. Getting to the summit and walking along the ridge is fairly straightforward. Avoiding the scramble did lead for a steep descent however was very manageable- Alistair

I just did it today but never went along the rigde.

The ridge won’t be for everyone but definitely worth considering. The worst part is the bit at the top so you can always make a decision from there. Was it a good walk today?

@@HighlandHikers yeah, a great walk. My 8 year old son, our dog and I have had a week of walking, bagging 6 Munro’s (including this one), so the ridge was a step too far today. Will definitely revisit with fresher legs.

That’s pretty good going! I think Douglas might have a good chance of getting Adam up a Munro by the age of 8. I need to work on mine a bit before trying that. Which other ones did you do?

@@HighlandHikers it was my son who added the first comment in this conversation - watching the video on our way down the mountain. He’s slightly obsessed with hill walking just now 🤣 (there are definitely worse obsessions out there). Having a base in Killin for the week has been ideal for doing Ben Lawers and Beinn Ghlas, Meall Corranaich and Meall a' Choire Lèith, Ben Chonzie and Meall nan Tarmachan (his/our 19th so far).

That’s brilliant. Definitely worse things to be obsessed with at that age! There’s a couple there I haven’t done myself so will look them up for future. Killin is a great wee place as well.
