  1. Hi,
    we are planning a few days walking in April in NW Scotland and have already
    walked fairly extensively in the Glencoe/Mamores area inluding a superb
    time on the Aonach Eagach .

    I was after suggestions for walks perhaps further north or east ? we'll be
    staying in Kinlochleven for 2 days but wanted to try somewhere different for
    the latter part of our stay .
    We enjoy high level routes along ridges especially and our only limitation
    is that we need to drive down to Glasgow Airport for a 19:00 flight on the
    final day.

    Any ideas gratefully appreciated ?.

    Cheers
    Chris

    You could cross over to the Ardnamurchan Peninsula on the ferry and walk
    over there. There is only one munro - Resipol - but I think it might be
    quite nice. I actually enjoyed just walking the coast because it had some
    fantastic little coves and ruined castle and so on.

    Another thought would be to do some of the Mamores above Kinlochleven(by the
    big Waterfall - the name of which escapes) which many often forget. You
    could also drop down more south and walk the hills around Rannoch and Tulla.

    Other option might be to go up to Glen Garry and walk around there which is
    more North-East.

  3. Pedants corner - but Beinn Resipol isn;t a Munro - it;s a Corbett.
    Still an absolutely fantastic area and will be all the quieter for the
    fact that there isn't a Munro in the immediate vicinity.

    Not too far from Fort William - I would reccomend the Munros on the
    North side of Loch quoich - 2 excellent walks on great stalkers paths...
