Hiking

Beinn Ìme is the highest mountain in the Arrochar Alps, in the Southern Highlands. The mountain has a simple slope and a well-maintained path. As you might expect, at 3,316 feet (1,011 metres) tall, you are afforded some truly spectacular views from the summit.

Hiking

On the descent of Ben Ime, a steep grass drop can offer an alternative route back to Arrochar via Glen Loin. Beware though, it is steep and caution must be taken - Stay close to the fence line.

Hiking

A long but rewarding walk in from the car park (very expensive). This munro is easily walked from the Glen but once out in open hillside, careful navigation is needed in poor visibility.
