Blackmount Rannoch Moor Bridge of Orchy Scottish Highlands
Informations supplémentaires:
From Rannoch Moor the route then drops to a relatively low saddle before climbing the second Munro - Stob Ghabar (pronounced Gower). A much more exciting mountain to view and climb, a very strenous and steep ascent is made up to the Aonach Eagach ridge (not to be confused with its more famous and notorious namesake just to the north). The ridge is then followed, with a couple of rocky steps, up to the summit, from where views stretch over to Lorn and Glen Coe. Ben Nevis is easily identifiable to the north. The descent route drops to the Mam nan Sac before joining a good stalker's track down to Clashgour and then dropping to the 'Abhainn Shira' (River Shira) and following it back to the start By car: Bridge of Orchy is on the A82(T) road (Fort William - Crianlarich). At Bridge of Orchy, turn left (from the south) or right (from the north) onto an unclassified road (not the B8074) signposted to Inveroran and Forest Lodge and follow the road for 5km, passing Inveroran Hotel. The car park is signposted on the left. The walk is in a working estate and there are some restrictions on access during the stalking season (August - October inclusive). Walkers are asked to read and follow any information displayed at the car park. An upland area and a deer forest at the western end of Rannoch Moor on the border between Highland Council Area and Argyll and Bute, the Black Mount extends over an area of boggy moorland 4 miles (6.5 km) north of Bridge of Orchy.
