You can let out a whoop of jubilation upon reaching the grand summit of Stob Coire Leith. If you're heading west, you've just completed the most technical section of the Aonach Eagach ridge and the adrenaline will be surging. If you're heading east, even better; you've got it all still to come.

Between Stob Coire Leith and Sgòrr nam Fiannaidh, the ridge widens and becomes more of a hike than a scramble. The views, as they are throughout the Aonach Eagach, are simply sensational.

One of the four munro tops of the Aonach Eagach ridge. A classic Scottish outing.
