Not quite a 'munro' but an absolute must if you enjoy hiking. Park in the car-park at the head of Loch Long in Arrochar village, although the charges are pretty steep!....then follow the trail where signposted. A 7 mile approx. hike which can be a bit challenging in places depending on your level of fitness, although the views from the summit are absolutely stunning. However, please be aware that weather conditions can change very rapidly out in the mountains, so, dress accordingly and have everything you need to raise the alarm in the event of an emergency.
