The summit features a substantial stone cairn, which is an ideal spot for a celebratory snack or to take that all-important summit selfie.
The mountain is primarily composed of ancient metamorphic rocks, part of the Moine Supergroup, which give it a rugged, dramatic appearance. You will find schists and gneisses; basically, it’s the rock equivalent of an old man with a beard—characterful and layered.
From the summit, you'll be rewarded with views of Loch Awe and a plethora of neighboring Munros, like Ben Cruachan and Meall nan Tarmachan. On a clear day, the scenery here will make your heart skip a beat—just don’t forget to breathe.
