Often overshadowed by Ben Lui, its illustrious neighbour, hikes to Ben Oss are not to be outdone. These are magnificent adventures to a towering Munro summit that arguably boasts even more sensational views than those from Lui. Plus, there’s no reason not to ascend both in one epic outing for a day that will embed itself in your memory for many years.

Ben Oss is a broad, 3,376-foot (1,029 m) Munro that very much plays second fiddle to neighbouring Ben Lui. However, the view from the summit is awe-inspiring, both back towards Ben Lui and south along Loch Lomond. It is usually ascended along with Beinn Dubhchraig to the east.

Fine views over to Ben Lui. A fairly straight forward ascent to here from Beinn Dubhcraig.
