This way up

Pap of Glencoe


Folder: Scotland
Chose this one to climb as it was walkable from my accommodation. The summit is 742 metres. The final ascent is a bit of a clamber, but not too difficult.

Coming down was another matter and killed my legs.

The full trip was 11.5 km (7 miles).

A sign where the path starts. The Gaelic name for the mountain is "Sgurr na Cìche"

The view from the summit

Looking south-west: with the track passing between Meall Mor to the right and Fionn Ghleann to the left.
