## Details

Join Glasgow Young Walkers on a walk to Meall Ghaordaidh. This is the second time we host this route this year. We will prioritise those who have not participated last time.

We will follow this route: https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/perthshire/meall-ghaordaidh.shtml

· Meeting point/time: Limited layby parking for 2-3 cars, so we will want to start the walk at 09:00 to avoid missing out. If this is missed, there is another layby 1-2 miles south.
· Distance: 9.5km / 6 miles
· Ascent: 895 m
· Duration: 5 hours
· Terrain: Rough track, then hill path - very boggy in places. Rockier near summit.

Getting there
By car: The starting point of the walk is 1 hour 30 minutes away by car from the city centre of Glasgow. If you can offer a lift, please add this to the comments with the number of places you have. Non drivers will be expected to contribute towards fuel costs. Priority will be given to those that can offer lifts.

This is a moderate walk with a considerable amount of ascent thus previous hillwalking experience and a good fitness are essential. Please wear suitable walking boots and bring your full waterproofs. Please also make sure that you have food and water on you. Additionally, walk leaders reserve the right to turn away participants who, in their opinion, are inadequately equipped or unfit for the type of walk.

This walk is limited to 8 attendees.
