Running

After a short but vigorous effort, you wind your way up the narrow path before suddenly hitting the brakes at this large rock. The view? Stunning!

Hiking

Great place to sit and admire the view. There is also a rock monument here as well.

Hiking

One of 2 viewpoints from up here; the other viewpoint offers a better view of the lochans but this one has a seat. Recommend taking a clockwise route: a gentler climb up.
