Black Mount Mountaineering Experience

We leave from Inveroran following a river and then a mountain stream up to a mountain pass at 668 meters.

From here we hike and scramble to the summit of Stob Ghabhar at 1090 meters via steep scree fields and the “little” Aonach Eagach ridge.

The views across the wilds of Rannoch Moor and towards Glen Coe are spectacular.

At this point we have the option to follow the edge of a giant corrie and descend into the hidden Coirein Lochan, a beautiful mountain loch surrounded by rocky slopes and cliffs with a waterfall cascading over slabs to pools below.

Few people venture here: there is a great sense of calm and solitude. As we return there is also the option to summit the adjacent Stob a Choire Odhair.

This is a long, wild and highly rewarding experience into the wilderness.
