"Ben Lomond" Scotland
Ben Lomond, in the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park is the most southerly of all Scotland’s Munros. At 974m high, it’s by no means Scotland’s highest peak, but the walk, views and proximity to Glasgow make Ben Lomond easily one of the most popular Scottish mountains for keen hikers. The view to the north from the top reveals range beyond range of mountains right into the Highlands.

Last Pull
The last time I summited a Munro was November’19 when my son Craig and I climbed a cloud bound Schiehallion. For a long time I didn’t think I would ever manage another after the blow the Pfizer Covid vaccine struck me . But here we are five years later and I have managed Ben Lomond albeit at a snail’s pace . Photo by my wife Angelica.
