About Sron a' Choire Ghairbh

Sròn a' Choire Ghairbh stands as the loftier of the two Munros gracing the northern shores of Loch Lochy.

Notably, the largest of these corries, which presently shelters the small Loch a' Choire Ghlais, is earmarked for an extensive hydro-scheme project. This development promises to bring significant changes to the landscape, adding a layer of intrigue to this already captivating peak.
