"Today is your day ! Your mountain is waiting. So... get on your way."
Dr Seuss

 

We will meet at the Glen Nevis Visitor Centre, from here we will drive up to the car park at the head of Glen Nevis and follow the path by Steall Falls turning off the main track and heading up the slope to the north into Alt Coire Ghiuthsachan amd then heading up the grassy slopes by Bealach Cumhann.

We continue climbing steadily above Sloc nan Uan until we reach the cairn above the Carn Mor Dearg Arete, with stunning views over Coire Leis. From here we climb up the bouldery final slope to the summit of Ben Nevis, eventually emerging onto the summit plateau a short walk from the trig point.

From the summit of Ben Nevis we shal descend west, following the supply track down, gently at first over the summit plateau before the path gets a bit steeper and descends in wide zig-zags until we're down at Lochan Meall an t-Suidhe (or Half Way Lochan).

From here the path descends the southern flank of Meall an t-Suidhe at a fairly steady gradient to the Ben Nevis Inn and then across the river to the visitor centre.

Each participant will be required to bring suitable equipment for their chosen event, please see Kit List tab above.
