Stob Coire nan Lochan, Aonach Eagach and Ben Nevis from Bidean nam Bian, 3 kbGlen Coe's highest peak, Bidean nam Bian forms the apex of a complex and majestic massif of several sharp summits, with chiselled crests and deep-gouged corries walled by an impressive array of crags. Taken together this is one of the great mountains of Scotland. The range throws three parallel ridges towards the glen, cut short by an ice age glacier to form the famous spurs of the Three Sisters. The higher peaks and corries rise half-hidden and mysterious behind this public face. The radiating ridge/corrie layout permits many combinations of route; the one described here is among the more comprehensive tours of the massif, taking in its three most distinctive summits (two of them Munros).

8.61 miles, 13.86 km, 1,385m ascent, 6 hours. Ballachulish (or Fort William if you want a real town)
