When it’s not absolutely bucketing down, this is my go-to walk. Since day one it has been the most picturesque walk that is easily accessible from Fort William that doesn’t involve climbing a Munro. 

I often do the circuit around the hill which takes around 1.5hours at a good pace, though on a slower day or with the kids it can take 2 – 2.5 hours. Reaching the summit (298m) takes an additional 20-30mins, however, it is a great spot for a picnic.

I thought I would share some of my snaps over the past few months from late summer through to Autumn and of course a few rainy days are thrown in because, well, we are now in Scotland and it rains a whole bunch. 

Now that is not to discourage anyone, I often walk when it is just a light sprinkle/drizzle. But after a good soaking, the track can get a little muddy in places with big puddles, so waterproof shoes are a must on those days. The track is really smooth and fairly easy-going otherwise. 

There are multiple entry points to the walk and I will talk you through those further down in this post. 

But right now take a look at these pics, just click on one to pull up as a slides.
