Towering above its neighbouring hills and mountains, the hiking trails up Ben Klibreck will take you to the top of the second most-northerly Munro. At 3,156 feet (962 m), it’s not the height that makes Ben Klibreck overly special, it’s the setting. Sitting in the midst of incredibly wild moorland, the views are like something out of a fantasy novel with hardly any signs of humanity.

Hiking

Ben Klibreck is a Munro mountain of 962m in height in the northern Scottish Highlands. In fact, Ben Klibreck is Scotland's second most northerly Munro mountain (the most northerly being Ben Hope). Ben Klibreck is a challenging mountain to climb from the west due to the amount of pathless terrain. Meall nan Con is the highest point on Ben Klibreck (the Munro summit). There is a shelter cairn and a broken trig point on the summit.

Hiking

A wonderfully empty and wild place. Will be amazed if you see anyone else up there.
