trip very much waited for, especially by bea. great weekend spent in glen nevis (fort william area), great weather, great company. first day we climbed stob ban and mullach nan coirean, second day lazily wandered in glen nevis and glencoe (nothing better than keeping feet in cold stream water!)

route starts at the achriabhach car park (see the nearby waterfall). ignore path following the stream and pass the gate taking the path leading to the mountains




sciezka prowadzi dolinka pomiedzy stob ban a sgurr a'mhaim, wiedzie wzdloz malego strumyka
the path follows a small glen inbetween of stob ban and sgurr a'mhaim, follows small stream




bramy raju   /  gate to heaven!

po drodze mijamy 'tanczace drzewa'. przypominaja nieco te z 'wladcy pierscieni' nie?
path passes the 'dancing trees', looking like the ones from 'lord of the rings', right?

nasz cel dnia  /  destination of the day








dolina ktora przyszlismy. byl tam jeden dosc 'niewygodny' moment gdzie trzeba bylo wspiac sie po gladkim, mokrym i prawie pionowym glazisku
the glen we just followed. there was one awkward step where we had to climb a wet, smooth and vertical slab




po dotarciu na 'przelecz' pod stob ban. widok na sgurr an lubhair
we reached the bealach just before the final climb to stob ban. view to sgurr an lubhair

ze szczytu stob ban widok na dalsza czesc naszej wycieczki - w oddali mullach nan coirean
view from summit of stob ban, towards the second munro of the day mullach nan coirean








sgurr an lubhair & lochan coire nam miseach




zejscie ze szczytu stob ban wiedzie przez rumowisko bialych niestabilnych kamieni (bardzo nierzyjemne zejscie, trzeba niezle uwazac stawiajac stopy). z oddali wyglada na bardzo strome, z bliska nie tak zle

way down from stob ban goes thru large scree field, very unpleasant (be very careful where you put your feet as the scree wasnt too stable). from afar the scree looks very steep, but it isnt too bad

dzien wciaz byl piekny, nie spieszylo nam sie spowrotem tak wiec spedzilismy na tym szczycie ponad godzine cieszac sie sloncem i gadajac
the day was still awesome, we were not in hurry therefore we spent over an hour on the summit, just enjoying the sunshine and talking

sciezka z mullach nan coirean prowadzi grania, najpierw kamienista, pozniej trawiasta. nalezy isc wzdloz plotu i przekroczyc go dopiero po drabinie (przy lesie). pozniej sciezka wiedzie przez las, potem wyrabany las i dociera do drogi. nalezy skrecic w prawo (w lewo droga zaraz sie konczy) i isc droga az do zakretu. na zakrecie odbija sciezka (nie przy kupie kamieni -cairn) ale 10 krokow nizej kolo drewnianego malego plotku, sciezka idzie ewidentnie w dol, obok strumienia. po kilkunastu minutach dociera do asfaltowej drogi i to tyle :)

from mullach nan coirean take the path along the northern ridge. at first it's scree, then rocks and grass. follow the fence, but dont cross it intil you reach large ladder-stile at the forest. follow the path down thru the forest, fell and reach the track. take right (track ends just few yeards to the left) and follow down until the sharp bend. at the bend there is a cairn, ignore it. only few yards down the path starts (off the track), marked with a small wooden fence -it definitely goes down, take this one and follow it along the stream until the asphalt road. the car park is 200 yards to your right.
