Tips

Hiking

Bynack More is a 1,090m Munro mountain in the Scottish Highlands. We approached it in September 2019 from the northeastern shores of Loch Avon, after descending Beinn Mheadhoin. Bynack More was to be the last Munro in a 3.5 day expedition, bagging 14 Munro mountains in the Cairngorms National Park. The summit ridge of Bynack More features a series of granite tors which have been likened to the spine of an ancient dragon.
