周辺の山頂・トップ20

Travelled here January this year when it just snowed the night before. Ascended from the north after The Cobbler, and the snow was pretty deep (over ankle), making the journey strenuous. The way down was blazing beautiful under the sunset, but it was quite dangerous as the passage was steep, narrow and slippery with all the snow. Ice axe stopped a couple of slips that could end up very unfavourably for me : ) But overall it's an unforgettable day

Ben Dolich (857m) is located on the western edge of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, southwest of the Cobbler mountain. The route to the summit begins at the famous Rest and Be Thankful viewpoint. This "relatively" short hike (approx. 7.5-9 km) offers magnificent 360° views and initially leads up forest paths (more like small streams after rain) and steep, grassy slopes, often quite damp. A short scramble (5 m) requires descending. If the rock is dry, this is no problem at all. If it's wet, be careful, but it's easily doable, with nice footholds. The summit is a few hundred more (flatter) meters to climb. From up here: a sensational 360° view! Conclusion: it's worth it, relatively. rarely used, never really difficult, only steep in places but still never easy enough to walk absentmindedly.

Rode this on the mtb on 21/3/25 and is worth climbing over the fallen trees at the bottom, there's no blockage on the rest of the path

Awesome view to the Ardnamurchan peninsula and the islands of Eorsa and Ulva in Loch na Keal. Munro giants (Ben Nevis and co) on the mainland can be seen to the north-east. This is Mull's only Munro and it was actually my first ever Munro. It also makes for a great 'final Munro' due to the novelty/fun of the ferry journey over and the relative ease of the walk in comparison to other Munros.

In Feb. 2022 'done' this beautiful top in 2 attempts. The first day it stormed, so I decided to return halfway and pitch my tent again in the same spot. The next day the weather was beautiful as shown in the video below.

The hike to Cobbler takes you through the picturesque landscape of the Arrochar Alps, offering breathtaking views along the way. The path, which rises from the shores of Loch Long, is well developed and takes walkers through a diverse natural backdrop that becomes increasingly spectacular with every meter of elevation. One of the highlights of the climb is the moment when the summit becomes fully visible for the first time, a sight that immediately makes you forget the hardships of the climb. The summit section of the Cobbler consists of three peaks, with the central peak marking the highest point. For the more adventurous, climbing the central peak offers an additional challenge: the so-called "window" climb, a narrow crevice that leads to a narrow ridge. Although this passage does not require climbing equipment, it should only be attempted in dry conditions and by hikers who are not afraid of heights. Despite its popularity as a hiking destination, the Cobbler is no easy feat. The Scottish weather can change quickly and the paths can become slippery when wet, particularly due to the mica schist that forms the rock of the mountain. Thorough preparation, appropriate equipment and carrying navigation aids are therefore essential.

Well worth the climb up from Luss village with magnificent views over Loch Lomond and the Arrochar hills.
