10 Mountains - 1 Day The Mamores Munros

  • This video is all about the challenge we set ourselves to complete the entire range of the Mamores Mountain Range in Glen Nevis in 1 day!
    So, Brad and I decided to raise money for two very worthwhile charities. JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) and the Renfrew Victoria Youth FC. Instead of doing a normal thing like a sponsored walk or shorter hike, we decided to REALLY challenge ourselves!
    The start of this epic hike is from the Lower Falls Car Park in Glen Nevis taking on #1 Mullach Nan Coirean, #2 Stob Bàn, #3 Sgùrr a' Mhàim, #4 Am Bodach, #5 Stob Coire a' Chàirn, #6 An Gearanach, #7 Na Gruagaichean, #8 Binnein Mòr, #9 Sgùrr Eilde Mòr, #10 Binnein Beag and finishing at the Steall Falls Car Park in Upper Glen Nevis.
    The plan was for this to be done in around 14 hours but as you will see in the video, this didn't quite go to plan!
    A special thanks to Arron "Azz" Pike for use of his drone! What trust he must have in me!
    I really do hope you enjoy the video and if you can, please donate to our worthwhile causes.

    Amazing video and achievement. Me and three friends are doing this as part of a challenge in June this year. We have called it The Munro Marathon, 26 Munros over three ranges on three consecutive days. Your video was part of the inspiration for me setting this challenge. 10 munros day 1 in the Mamors, 7 day 2 Lawers range, 9 day 3 Glenshee. Wish us luck. PS your round up after the fact caused us all to shit ourselves, spending 2 days there checking it out caused us to shit ourselves even more!!!!!😂

      Hi Keith! Unbeknown to the UA-cam community but i did this round again last year! It's all in the preparation mate. Make sure you've got the lightest kit and the appropriate nutrition and you'll skoosh it! I've actually done all your rounds you mentioned above and i'm sure you'll smash them all! Happy to give advice if required. Please feel free to message me on FB. Also, get your JustGiving or charity link in the comments! Every little helps ;) Here's a link to my Glenshee Round. ua-cam.com/video/RQg2dIArZzg/v-deo.htmlsi=AeTmKP26yC-yAip7

    Did this route yesterday and your thoughts at each stage were pretty much the exact same as mine 😂 I have done a few multi Munro routes before but this was by far the hardest. Recommendations to anyone that does it:
    1. Start early. Some people can do it in 11 hours but heard people say all the way up to 22 hours so be prepared for worst. I usually walk about 20% faster than walk highlands claims and this took me 16.5 hours!!
    2. Bring lots of water. I went through close to 6 litres.
    3. The last 2 Munro’s are horrible after a long day particularly number 9 of the day. I would think of number 8 as being half way through the day for how tough/long the last 2 are.
    4. If camping the night before drop your car at the upper glen Nevis car park which will save about 20 mins of walking at the end of the day.
    5. Almost all of the Munro’s are more technically challenging than usual requiring some scrambling.
    7. Search mamores 10 posts on Facebook before going to see others opinions.
    Edit: Also met a guy that was running 18 Munro’s that day including the 10 mamore Munro’s so shout out to him

      @mountainspeak390  Рік тому

      Hi thanks for the great comment. There are plenty of camping spots in the cols of the mountains. The sections in between each summit. Most of the summits are rocky and uneven though, so a summit spot may be difficult. The Bealach a’Chadha Riabhaich in between mountains 4 & 5 would be a great wee spot and it’s near some small pools where you could filter water. Around w3w : educated.vessel.palm. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching and ATB.
