STOB COIRE NAN LOCHAN, BIDEAN NAM BIAN, STOB COIRE SGREAMHACH, THE LOST VALLEY

nasza ostatnia wycieczka do glencoe. wyjazd z edynburga 7 rano, 2.5 godz jazdy. dzien zapowiadal sie wspaniale (i okazal sie wspanialy, niespodzianka). trasa obejmowala wejscie na 3 szczyty - 2 munrosy i jeden munro top, choc nazwanie stob coire nan lochan tylko 'munro topem' wydaje mi sie dosc niesprawiedliwe - kawal z niego gory dal nam sie niezle we znaki. fajnym miejscem byla tez 'zagubiona dolina', ktora zobaczylysmy w drodze powrotnej.

zabralysmy ze soba martina, ktory szalenczo krecil filmiki, zmontowal je w 1 fajny klip (4 minuty) do zobaczenia TUTAJ - WARTO POSWIECIC 4 MINUTY BY ZOBACZYC TA KOMEDIE :)

.


our most recent trip to glencoe. sunday morning, we left edinburgh at 7am and arrived to glencoe pass within 2.5hrs. the day was fantastic, good weather and great route (9.5 hrs). we climbed 3 mountains: 2 munros and 1 munro top, although calling stob coire nan lochan just a munro top is a wee bit unfair - it's a hell of a the mountain. we also discovered a nice place called the lost valley. all our achievements were filmed by martin, who fixed lots of short movies into a 4 minutes clip - CLICK HERE TO SEE IT (IT'S WORTH TO SPEND THOSE 4 MINUTES WATCHING IT)

sa dwie opcje zdobycia stob coire nan lochan - pierwsza to zejscie ze sciezki 'pod'jeziorkami i pojscie w prawo aby ominac czesc wymagajaca nieco wspinania. druga pocja to podazenie sciezka dalej w gore, krotka wspinaczka do kolejnej doliny -z jeziorkami, oraz dalej wspinaczka grania na coire nan lochan. my przegapilismy zejscie w prawo tak wiec decyzja podjela sie sama -poszlismy trudniejsza trasa

there are two ways to reach stob coire nan lochan: first is turning right just before reaching the lochans and following path on slopes of the mountain; or second option is continuing up with some scramble to reach the lochans and then turn left to the ridge and follow the ridge to the summit, with some nice scramble again. we missed the early turn right therefore we walked the more difficult way.
