Overview

Ben Chonzie is a popular hill which means that after the good track to start, there is a well worn path to the summit. This walk is suitable for any B walkers wishing to try a Munro. There is a shelter cairn at the summit for lunch. Return will be by the same route. Anyone who wishes to practice their navigation can bring their map and compass. We will be following the route described on www.walkhighlands.co.uk or the walkhighlands app. Please bring micro spikes or similar if you have them.
