Overview

These two Munros are separate walks that start from the same start point, so depend on conditions, we can do 1 or 2 with the added benefit of being able to pick up extra food and drink as we pass the cars between the hills! This makes the day an ideal opportunity for regular B walkers to try 1 or 2 Munros at a Slow A pace. Both walks are an "out & back". The walk stats are for both hills, each one detailed here:
Meall Buidhe: 8.5km, ascent 550m
Stucd an Lochain: 8.5km, ascent 730m
Both hills give great views and fairly easy terrain on broad ridges. The walks start at height 430m.
