Ben Cruachan (1126m) is the highest point in Argyll and with its neighbouring Munro, Stob Diamh (998m) forms a fine and prominent ridge overlooking the Pass of Brander and Cruachan Dam, a hydro-electric scheme built in the 1960s - the actual power station itself situated in a hollow inside the mountain.

We will follow a circular route of approximately 14km (9 miles), taking in both munros and possibly also a Corbett (Beinn a'Bhuiridh). You should have a reasonable level of physical fitness in order to tackle the entire circuit.

Details of the proposed route are available on the Walkhighlands website.

Why not make a weekend of it and join us for a slightly easier walk up the Cruachan Horseshoe's easterly neighbours - Beinn a' Chochuill & Beinn Eunaich on Sunday 6th May?
