We are the Livingston Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

The hike starts at Glen Artney Church car park and mainly follows hill tracks onto Ben Halton. The final approach to Ben Halton and Mor Bheinn is largely pathless, with indistinct paths in places. It is intended to descend via Ben Halton's east ridge to Tomanour and return by hill tracks to the start. There are fine views across Strathearn, Glen Artney and the surrounding hills. Red kites frequent the area. The walk is strenuous (B+).
Pathless sections (~ 2 km) are across rough ground with heather clumps. There are some areas of peat, which will be boggy in wet weather. There is ~ 1 km of tarmacadam and just over 2 km of gravel-surfaced track. There is one deer fence ladder and a couple of drystone walls to cross.
