An Gearanach, Mountain summit in Mamores, Scotland
An Gearanach is a summit in the Mamores range in Scotland that rises to about 982 meters. The peak features a narrow ridge extending north from the main backbone of this mountain range.
The mountain was included in the Munro classification system, which records Scottish peaks over 3,000 feet in height. This system helped climbers explore the region's major summits in a organized way.
The summit is part of a popular mountain route that walkers regularly traverse in the area. This circuit connects several peaks and is known among people who enjoy highland walks.
The climb starts in Kinlochleven and follows hiking paths toward Fort William before reaching the Mamore Lodge area. The best time to go is early in the day, especially when weather conditions are stable and visibility is good.
A steel suspension bridge crosses a valley during the approach to the mountain, adding a technical element to the hike. This bridge becomes particularly notable in bad weather when it moves with the wind.
