- Alistair enjoyed a hike on Ben Challum in great weather, giving him fantastic views of all the neighbouring Munros in the area and beyond, including Ben Lui, Ben Cruachan, Ben More, Stob Binnein, Cruach Ardrain, Beinn Dorain and many more. The walk is a straightforward out and back with some boggy sections lower down, leading on to a brilliant ridge walk to reach the summit.

Fantastic viewing Alastair,breathtaking views.This one is on my list now!!
Thanks William! There is a slight boggy section on the way up, but not as bad as other hills!
Spot on
Thanks Damian
Man that was good.
Thank you
Great vid. I did this mountain a few years ago but from the glen etive side. Was lucky to have clear sunny skies with the views too.
The walk over to the summit was rather enjoyable. Do you mean you walked up from Glen Lochay? Glen Etive is a decent distance away.
Realised after watching more of the vid that it’s not even the right mountain, didn’t read the title right 😂😂 I climbed Beinn Chaluim. When I saw the train track I knew I’d f’d up. 😂
Still a cracking vid. Can’t wait to be back up in the highlands for some more adventures myself in a few weeks.
Glad you enjoyed it! Hoping to get back out again ourselves fairly soon. Hope your walks are great when they come.
Excellent wee video. Superbly edited and very informative.👏👏👏
Thanks Danny
Heading there on Wednesday first munro in few months so be good to get out
Hope you get a good day for it! I’m dying to get back out but haven’t been able to marry up a day off and good weather!
done this on Sunday there, in the rain. the bog and mud on the descent was horrific!
I can imagine it would be rather juicy on the flatter section!
You picked the right day for it. Those views make it all worth the hard slog uphill.
The conditions were fantastic for hiking in. Really enjoyed the views that day.
Having a wee coffee and thoroughly enjoying sir.
They always seem more relaxing to watch once you’re all cosy at home 😁
Had to watch it again as I'm doing this on Sunday. Looking forward to it, first one of the year and many more to come.
Feel free to watch it more times 😂 Sunday looks cold but manageable. Today is a right off.
Great drone footage again Alastair! descended over the other side of the hill when I did this one! cannae forget those bogs! cheers. Paul.
Thanks Paul, it was a perfect day for flying thankfully.
Nice one Alastair, a perfect day for it. I done this one on New Year’s Day a few years ago .. good stuff.. cheers Stevie
Thanks Stevie, was a great day for hiking - Alistair
Hi, really loved the video, your presentation was brilliant. I was overjoyed to see the rose on the summit cairn, I placed it there in honour of my mother, who died a few days before my ascent of Ben Challum as my last Munro. What date did you do this walk please? The flower was placed there on 12/10/21. Thanks very much, Ed
That’s a beautiful gesture Ed, sorry to hear of the circumstances of it though. I completed this on 27th Oct and it was still perfectly placed where it appears in the video. I thought it was a lovely touch to the summit and not something I had ever seen before.
Thank you for your kind response. I feared for the flower lasting longer than a few hours. My day up there was dire, but to see it on your footage is just amazing. Thank you.
I have a few photos from the summit which include the rose if they are of interest to you? I’d be happy to send you them. Send me an email at scottishhighlandhikers@gmail.com and I can forward them to you.
Nice one, looks like a great day.
Did this one a couple of years ago, only met two people (they were not together) and we ended up going for coffee and cake in the Artisan Cafe together afterwards. You meet nice people on the hills ( mostly😃).
Thanks John, it was a great hike and I have to agree, we always meet some fantastic people on the hills who always have time to stop for a chat.
Alistair could you kindly tell me what editing software you use. I loved the labels indicating the mountains. I have to say your sentiments on climbing at the end of your video I echo strongly. Eloquently put over.
Thank you for the kind words Danny, very appreciated. I use DaVinci Resolve and created those labels myself. The software is free to use however has a steep learning curve to begin with.
Fantastic views today, what was the time for this hike?
Thanks Alistair. It took me just over 5 hours for the round trip however it could be done quicker if you’re not stopping to film everything along the way!
@@HighlandHikers 5 hours would be perfect As my company likes to take hundreds of pictures.
Always good to capture a few memories
