Ben Lui and Beinn a'Chleibh

Ben Lui is regarded as one of the grandest and most elegant mountains in the Southern Highlands, with a magnificent appearance when seen up the Cononish Glen from Dalrigh. The shortest route to it is from Glen Lochay, enabling easy inclusion of its less impressive neighbour Beinn a'Chleibh.Terrain - It is necessary to cross the River Lochay near the start of the walk - there is no bridge and it usually requires a wade and would be impassable in spate. Boggy paths in the forest follow, with a good deal of steep pathless ground higher up.Grade 4Distance 9.5km (5.9 miles)Ascent 1020m (3346ft)
