Though still bagging the two munros the hill walkers way! This is still a big day covering some steep round.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                        What the day includes -
Meeting in the morning we will head off picking up a great stalkers path which will gradually pull us up onto the bealach where we continue on towards Forcan Ridge. At the foot of the ridge we will branch off taking the bypass route which traverses the Coire to Bealach Coire Mhalagain.
After a quick break we have a steep pull up to the summit of our first Munro, The Saddle. Retracing our steps the way we came we will drop back down to the bealach and head on for our second munro. A little further in distance to reach and a few false summits later we will gain the second munro of the day, Sgurr na sgine.
                                                                                                                                                                                             Depending on the group and conditions we will either descend via Faochag or head back to the bealach and pick up the stalkers paths from earlier in the morning.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                               This event is ideal for those with previous hiking experience and good hill fitness.
