Mountain Description
Conival and Ben More Assynt are two mountains connected by a high ridge and consequently climbed together. The summit of Conival sits at the intersection of three ridges. The NW ridge leads to a col connecting to Beinn an Fhurain and it is here that a path ascends from Gleann Dubh giving the most obvious ascent route. The E ridge connects to Ben More Assynt, and a third ridge runs SE to Glen Oykel. Conival has fairly steep rock and scree covered slopes, hence the crests of the ridges are the easiest routes. The summit is marked by a large cairn.
