Achray and Venachar from the summit of Ben Venue.
For some years Jean Storer has organised a walk to the summit of
Ben Venue for a group from the Ayr & District Rambling Club
on the Sunday of week 5. Any week 5ers with the boots, waterproofs,
and the inclination are welcome to join the party.
Ben Venue can be reached from the path that begins on the Ledard
Farm lane right beside Forest Hills. I joined the group this year.
In all the years I have been at Forest Hills, this is my first time
on the summit of Ben Venue.
Summit 729m.
Total ascent 936m.
Distance (from FH and back) 7.4 miles. |
