  • This walk takes in the three munros on the south side of Loch Laggan. Beinn a' Chlachair, Geal Charn and Creag Pitridh give a loop walk before you retrace your steps back to the car.
    Parking is available just off the A86 and an excellent track gives easy access into the hills. Bridge repairs at Lochan na h-Earba resulted in a slight detour to avoid the replacement work.
    It was forecasted to be a lot warmer but a good day was had nonetheless.

    did these 3 last summer over 2 days and a camp at the beach with a few guys who enjoy the hills....
    Nice spot for an overnight and a few laughs and a lovely sunrise...

    I have to watch all your videos three times Charlie!
    1. When you release them.
    2. Before I attempt to do the route...and then
    3. When I come back home!
    Cheers Charlie. Paul

    It's a good 30 years since I was last on these hills; all I can remember of that day is looking down on Lochan na Herba from the summit of Creag Pitridh. There's some green obviously starting to show in the hillsides now as we get the warmer weather. Conditions a bit hazy now, Charlie, but at least the tops are clear. Not my favourite time of year, however !

      Hi Ian, Oct 85 was the first time I was on these hills and remember the clear crisp sky. Unfortunately, we are into haze and lush greens which isn't a great time for photography.... On the other hand the tops are clear and it's not raining so can't have it always. Cheers, Charlie.

    Great to see these hills Charlie. I've still to do Creag Pitridh and Geal Charn but did Beinn a'Chlachair in the winter with lots of snow several years ago. Brilliant video. Are you guys twins, or brothers? You look very similar.

      Hi Heather, You'll enjoy CP & GC when you get round to them, not much walk between the two but the track getting to them goes on a bit.
      What better walking partner to have but your twin brother, like minded and well matched for getting around the hills. Many thanks for watching. Cheers, Charlie.

      Hi Philip, Just using the GoPro now as I stopped carrying the dslr 18 months ago. The GoPro quality isn't as good but it's certainly good enough and a more functional for me now. I still take screen grabs during editing the movie as a photo record of the outings. Cheers, Charlie
