Like the idea of a more mobile base for your next Munro?
Fantastic, high quality, heated, 2-4 berth campervans for hire. The perfect winter base: freedom to choose where you go to get the most from the weather, & a cosy base to come back to after a great day on the hill!
Big Tree Campervans – create your own adventure!

Although I walked it the other way around, it is an easy route, with nice views all the way. Walking on flat and wide areas for a long time at a height of around 900 meters gives the opportunity to look around and enjoy the walk.
