Whereas Stob Coire Raineach is very much a peak, Stob Dubh is a long ridge that rises at its southwestern end to a fine summit. The ridge makes for a wonderfully panoramic and easy walk, with excellent views across to Buachaille Etive Mòr, the Bidean and of Stob Dubh itself, which rises to a classic peak.
