The Black Mount is a range of mountains stretching from Glen Orchy to Glen Coe, beside Rannoch Moor. The southern two Munros (Scottish mountains over 3000ft) are climbed in this walk. They are mountains of great contrast - Stob a' Choire Odhair is straightforward. The ascent route follows a stalking path into Coire Toaig before climbing a shoulder directly to the summit, which affords excellent views east over the vast expanse of Rannoch Moor. The route then drops to a relatively low saddle before climbing the second Munro - Stob Ghabar (pronounced Gower). A much more exciting mountain to view and climb, a very strenous and steep ascent is made up to the Aonach Eagach ridge (not to be confused with its more famous and notorious namesake just to the north). The ridge is then followed, with a couple of rocky steps, up to the summit, from where views stretch over to Lorn and Glen Coe. Ben Nevis is easily identifiable to the north.
