    Hiking

    On the usual route to Ben Lawers, it's Beinn Ghlas that dominates the view ahead, hiding its parent peak from view. This is a wonderfully accessible Munro, especially given its 3,619-foot (1,103 m) height, thanks to the high Ben Lawers car park.

    Beinn Ghlas can be bypassed either in ascent or descent via a path that contours around its northern flanks. It's also possible to link Beinn Ghlas to Meall Corranaich to the northwest.

    Hiking

    En route to Ben Lawers, and on the ridge of 5 Munros, this is an easy Munro to ascend starting from the Ben Lawers Car park. Great views.
