Overview

Ben Lawers and Beinn Ghlas

Summary
Ben Lawers at 1214m is the tenth highest Munro - is the culminating point of the sprawling range of mountains on the north side of Loch Tay. Its great height is undermined by a high level car park to begin the ascent, and this is one of the most popular hills in Scotland. A second Munro - Beinn Ghlas at 1103m - is crossed en-route.

Contact Anne to book on 07597633713. Please contact at least 24 hours before walk and please say if you are able to drive to help with planning transport.
