Last Monday we had a lovely day up Sgurr An Eilean Ghiubhais a #hill east of Mallaig in #scotland This is a video we took at the summit for your consideration 😊 #hills #hiking #hike #sea 🥾

Often planned then weather not being ideal..Saturday was our day on Beinn Trilleachan. Starting from the car park near Coileitir. #corbetts #Corbetteering #Scotland #mountains #scottishlandscape

Cùl Mòr 4/5/25 following the @walkhighlands route up to the top then to Sròn Gharbh and then to the top of Creag nan Calman to take in more of this amazing panorama. Cracking day! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️

Final day of the trip was the best of all. Yesterday 5/5/25 on the three Corbetts of Quinag. #Scotland #mountains #corbetts #corbetteering #hillwalking #highlands

18/4/25 Glen Lyon. Made the most of a lovely morning going to Meall Bhuide (Munro) and then a nice walk over to the #corbett Cam Chreag before the weather went grey and cold. #corbetteering #Scotland #mountains #hillwalking

Last year at Easter I was up Ben Nevis and my daughter decorated an egg for me to roll down it. As I was away hillwalking on Easter Sunday again I joined in and created a Tom Weir egg, whilst she created an eggstravagent Pierrot. They were a perfect brunch.

Happy Easter! 🐣 Views of the Cairngorms from the Corbett, Culardoch. #Easter #EasterSunday #Scotland #mountains #corbetts #corbetteering #cairngorms

Current view on Choire Chnapanich now for tea at the top 🫖🥪😍 #corbetts #corbetteeing #Scotland #mountains #highlands

Ben Chonzie 13/04/2025 931m A fantastic day up Ben Chonzie, with clear skies and sunshine! Absolutely bitter wind on the top but the views were fab, so couldn’t complain. A wonderful way to leave behind the winter season. #munro #scotland #scottishlandscape #hiking #walking #spring

12/4/25 Meall Lighiche, Sgòr na h-Ulaidh and Stob an Fhuarain. Nice circular tour, made for a better route than just doing the Munro. Spectacular views from every top. #Munros #Glencoe #mountains #Scotland #outdoors #Corbetts #corbetteering #scottishscenery

Wildfire in the distance last night 😒

Munro Monday was back this week, Càrn na Caim and A'Bhuidheanach Bheag, Drumochter. This time taking in their Munro tops and the West top of A'Bhuidheanach Bheag. 🦶🔥#mountains #munros #munrobagging #scotland #scottishhighlands #outdooradventures #outdoors

Stunning spring weather 🌞 so a trip to #Glencoe was in order. Went up Beinn A Chrualaiste #corbett grand hill with sensational views all round but of the big buchaille in particular #buchailleetivemor and what better after than a Bladnoch 14yo #whisky & Ardgour beer in #clachaig inn. #scotland

4/4/23 From Linn of Dee, camp at Loch Nan Stuirteag, 42kms circle of Bheinn Brotain, Monadh Mor, Sgor an Lochain Uaine, Cairn Toul & Bod an Deamhean. Returned by Derry Lodge. Cover so thin crampons weren’t required. #Munros #Scotland #highlands #snow #cairngorms

Ben Nevis in distance......no snow...start of april....🤷‍♂️😡 #scotland #munro #hills @frankhennessy.bsky.social 🥾

#ThrowbackThursday 30/3/96 29 years ago on the Drumochter #Munros of Beinn Udlamain, A' Mharconaich and Geal Chàrn. Survival bag saw action as it was great bum sliding conditions #Scotland #mountains #hillwalking #snow @walkhighlands.co.uk

Good Morning! 🌅

Beinn Dearg, Innerwick, Glen Lyon 31/3/25 by @walkhighlands route. Much better for descending Creag Ard as the ascent was pretty dull 🙄 Nice to be out, good views of Glen Lyon. #Corbetts #scotland #Corbetts #corbetteering #scottishhighlands #mountains #hillwalking

Camp with a view - you can’t beat that feeling when you’re pitched up with a brew just sitting there taking it all in 😊 #Sunshine #Mountain #Camp

Great view of the Paps of Jura today, in between hail showers!

3 years ago today on Braeriach from Chalamain Gap. #ThrowbackThursday #Munros #Scotland #mountains #cairngorms

Meall na Fearna 24/3/25 What a morning! Grand view of Ben Vorlich and Stùc a' Chròin, Fantastic bog fest 😂 Mild until the summit when we were blasted by freezing wind. #scotland #Corbetts #corbetteering #scottishhighlands #mountains #hills #hillwalking #hillwalkingscotland

Absolutely gutted to learn that David Heavy Whalley has passed. A true hero who wanted nothing more than to help people. Mountain rescue owes him a debt of gratitude, as does the country, for his service at Lockerbie. Rest in peace Heavy. Xxx www.walkhighlands.co.uk/news/heavy-w...

Bagging my 55th Munro, Ben Lomond last week, Happy #MountainMonday 👍😊 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #MunroBagging

A beautiful day for a wander in the hills. So went up Geal Charn Mor #corbett from Lynwilg just north of #aviemore desperate lack of snow for mid March away from main #Cairngorms . Grand day out though with lots of 🌞 and lovely views to Cairngorm plateau #scotland

And we’re back…on Corbetts! Beinn Chuirn, from Dalrigh today. 🙌 Great day, memories of climbing Ben Lui from this side in ‘98. It looked fine today from Beinn Chuirn. #Corbetteering #Corbetts #Scotland #mountains

🎥 My 50th bothy was my first solo bothy night. Not sure I’m in a rush to do another one alone. 😆 youtu.be/OFeVZniD-Kk

Last few mornings have felt more uplifting. Looking forward to seeing the sun more 🌅 ☺️ Have a great weekend everyone 👍
