About Ben Vorlich
Ben Vorlich majestically rises above the western shores at the northern end of Loch Lomond. Despite its proximity to the road, the mountain's steep inclines make for a challenging climb. On its eastern slopes, you'll find the Inveruglas hydro-electric power station, with pipelines threading through the mountain from Loch Sloy. Most hikers tackle Ben Vorlich via a steep ascent from the Loch Sloy side, but for those seeking a more varied and intriguing route, a circuit starting from Ardlui offers a rewarding alternative.
