About this event

Ben Starav is a monster of a Munro and from many angles, dominates the skyline at the head of Glen Etive. It doesn't stand alone however, and is in fact just 1 in a compact group of 5 Munros that are normally tackled over 2 or even 3 seperate day trips. We are here to visit all 5 summits in one single, long day. Our circular route is not to be underestimated and would normally only be considered by the experienced and very fit walker who routinely are well inside the Walk Highlands time estimates. We start from sea level on our long, 1100m climb up the north ridge to the summit of Ben Starav where our walk is only really just beginning. I absolutely love this route; heaps of variety, some easy scrambling, a sense of remoteness and the views are worthy of 5 stars the whole day long. I once lost my father-in-laws SLR camera up here during a sunrise effort and whenever I return I make half an effort to search for it. Should anyone who joins me on this walk find it, I'll refund their entire booking fee! This really is a walk not to miss.
