Ben More, Mountain summit in Argyll and Bute, Scotland
Ben More stands at 966 meters above sea level on the Isle of Mull, offering views across the Hebridean archipelago and neighboring Scottish islands.
William W. Ritchie completed the first documented ascent of Ben More in 1892, establishing the mountain's place in Scottish mountaineering records.
The mountain's name derives from Scottish Gaelic 'Beinn Mhòr,' reflecting the traditional language heritage of the Highland region and its geographical features.
Multiple hiking paths lead to the summit from different starting points along the A849 road, with the western route beginning near the village of Salen.
Red deer and golden eagles inhabit the mountain slopes, making Ben More a natural observatory for studying Highland wildlife in their native environment.
