Rescheduled - Ben Oss and Beinn Dubhchraig

Details

Join Glasgow Young Walkers a walk up the Munros Ben Oss and Beinn Dubhchraig. As per Walkhighlands ‘Ben Oss and Beinn Dubhcraig are satellites of mighty Ben Lui. Although the mountains themselves are not particularly distinguished, the approach walk leads through natural pine and birch forest and is very picturesque, though also very wet. Beinn Dubhcraig offers a fine view down Loch Lomond, whilst the Ben Lui looks simply magnificent from Ben Oss.’
This walk is weather dependant, if the weather is not suitable an alternative walk will be offered
