    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.

      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.
