Bidean Nam Bian - Open Ascents

Bidean Nam Bian

Scottish Guided Winter Walk

One on the finest and most inaccessible day trips in Scotland. Enjoy the highest peak in the magnificent Glen Coe valley. Home to the Three Sisters where we start our walk up.

 

This complex peak has many ridges and routes up it, but can be completed on average in just over seven hours. A good level of fitness is needed for this day on a par with our Ben Nevis guided days. It helps to have a good head for heights as we navigate through some stunning and atmospheric mountain ground.

 

Our route is around seven miles long and takes in Stob Corie Nan Lochan (the hidden valley) as we ascend up this must-do mountain.
