Stob Coire Sgriodain
A Munro of 979 metres above the east shore of Loch Treig, climbed by its north ridge from Fersit at the end of the Loch Treig road.
Stob Coire Sgriodain rises to 979 metres above the east shore of Loch Treig.
It is one of the two Munros on that side of the loch, and its partner, Chno Dearg, stands about two kilometres further east. Across the water stand Stob a' Choire Mheadhoin and Stob Coire Easain. Corrour Estate counts both hills among its Munros and gives this one's name as "Pinnacle in the Corrie of the Ravine".
The usual way up starts at Fersit, at the end of the Loch Treig road off the A86, and climbs the hill's north ridge. Corrour Estate calls stalking a vital part of its habitat management, so follow any signs on the day. No avalanche forecast covers the hill: the Lochaber avalanche forecasters have called the hills east of Loch Treig "no man's land". Do not count on a toilet, a shop, fuel or a phone signal near the hill. Choose a day with a good forecast, and carry a map, a compass and warm clothes.
