Creise & Meall a Bhuridh - Cost £60 per person
Distance - 10.5KM
Ascent - 1093M
Time - 7/9 hours
Two of the Black Mount Munros which make for a great day out and some amazing views over Rannoch Moor. Some may wish to use the chair lifts from Glencoe Mountain Resort to help with their ascent but on this event we will be covering all distance on foot.
What the day includes -
We will meet in the car park at Glencoe Mountain Resort, a high level starting point which is always welcomed but this hike still gets your legs and lungs working start away with a steep pull up from the car park to 700m. The gradient eases as we make our way across the hillside to gain the shoulder of Meall a Bhuridh. As we gain height the terrain underfoot becomes rocky and some extra effort is required to pull up the continuous boulder field to reach our summit.
After a well deserved break and bit to eat we will descend down the rocky ridge to the bealach and steeply start to reascend, this section requires minor scrambling. Once on the large plateau of Creise, a massive comparison to our first summit we have a short distance to cover before we reach our second munro of the day.
This route is an out and back hike, we will be retracing our steps back the way we came and will need to reascend Meall a Bhuridh. The terrain throughout is steep, loose and rocky. You must have previous hiking experience and good hill fitness to be able to attend.
Meeting location and kit list will be received upon booking.
