Benvane and Glencoe

Going camping in Glencoe tonight. On the way we stop just south of Balquidder to climb Benvane in the Trossachs.

We were blessed with amazing weather (for Scotland), hot, sunny, very little wind. We parked near Ballimore farm, and start walking along the bottom of the hill.


Then we start to climb up to the south, and after a stiff climb reach the long summit ridge.


After reaching the summit we stop to bathe in the sunshine.


After descending we then continued driving north, stopping at Tyndrum for a pint. Then on to Glencoe and the Red Squirrel campsite.

We put up the tent then walked the half mile or so to the Clachaig Inn for dinner. This was extremely busy, being a very warm June Saturday evening. We had venison casserole and venison burger - thanks Bambi!
