Stob Binnein is another high Munro in the area sitting at 3822ft it is the 18th highest Munro and is a prominent landmark throughout the southern highlands. Stob Binnein is normally climbed in conjunction with Ben More via a huge connecting bealach Bealach-eadar-dha Beinn. Stob Binnein is a pin point summit you really will be pushed to find a sport to get your lunch on the top if the hill is busy. There are other routes up Stob Binnein such as starting from Inverlochlarig in the south which should lose a bit of the crowds if there is any. Parking is available on the A85 just past Benmore Farm or Crianlarich has a stop on the Glasgow to Mallaig train line if you would prefer this. Which ever route you take up Stob Binnein it should be a memorable day on the hills...Tiring but memorable!
Parked at Inverlochlarig. The route up is steep but soon takes you out of the shadow into the sunshine. To avoid too much steep ice traversed right from the main path and went up in a big zig zag. Was glad of the crampons at the snow line but once on the ridge the snow was grisp and grippy.
The National park is trying to put in a composting toilet at the car park as it is beginning to be a popul
