Ben Challuim can be known for its boggy approach in the summer months so winters the perfect time to achieve this summit and a little less busy too!
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        What the day includes -
Meeting in the morning we will do a quick kit check before heading off for the day, once past the farms we have a long and gradual ascent for most of this hike. Hoping that the terrain will be frozen to make light work of the bog crossings!
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      The final summit approach is a fine ridge which can feel a bit more exposed in the winter months before a short ascent to the munro top. This is an out and back hike so we will be retracing our footsteps the same way we ascended.
On ascent and descent we will be refreshing your previous winter skills so you get the most out of the day.
