Great place to sit and admire the view. There is also a rock monument here as well.

One of 2 viewpoints from up here; the other viewpoint offers a better view of the lochans but this one has a seat. Recommend taking a clockwise route: a gentler climb up.

Nice hike, great views, but wow there’s a lot of clear cutting that has been done recently. It really detracts when you come across it on the way up.
