Glencoe - The Best Viewpoint - The Pink Rib Route

Glencoe has many brilliant sights and view points, but this hike takes me up to one of the best. With panoramic views over Glencoe, Rannoch moor and surrounding mountains, including Ben Nevis, It definitely ticks all the boxes.
This video follows a route up Beinn a'Chrulaiste known as the pink rib, a grade one scramble with beautiful views down Glencoe and over to mighty Buachaille Etive Mor.

Those views were stunning! You really get the scale of the thing in those drone shots as well!

[@ScottishMountainGoat]

Cheers Andrew! Yeah, still feels like it can't compare to what it's like being there. Need to start making VR videos 😄

Brilliant Kris, the usual standard we all come to expect. 👌🏼 Definitely fancy a wee shot on the Pink Rib. 🧗‍♂️

[@ScottishMountainGoat]

Cheers Robin! Yeh, it was a pleasant surprise. Don't forget your speedos for a dip in that wee infinity pool 😄 Cheers, Kris.

Will be doing this mountain during our visit in May 👍

[@ScottishMountainGoat]

Nice! You'll have a fantastic time Tracey, whichever route you decide to do. Hope you get some sunshine! Kris.

[@Traceyattrill-Essexgirlinwild]

@@ScottishMountainGoat so do I 😊 really want those views you showed us

[@alistairthow1384]

James i took the same route on the 21st of April and will agree that the views are stunning. I went up a year earlier in damp misty weather and those rocks were a different experience for sure.😮

[@ScottishMountainGoat]

I can imagine it was a little more "interesting" in the wet 😄Cheers! Kris.

[@alistairthow1384]

@@ScottishMountainGoat 🫣my apologies 'Kris' I had just watched a video with James from Scottish Munro Journey and swapped two fantastic vloggers names up.

[@stigfloberghagenphotography]

Looks amazing 👍🙂

[@brianst8]

Great video. Hope youre still getting out on the hills 👍

[@Cbermeo75]

Great video, bud!! I will be in Scotland in two weeks and may try to hike this (and the Hidden Valley hike). One question. On the hike back down, I see that you did not go down the same way you came up, as per the 0:40 mark. I don't see this hike on my Alltrails app. Although you ended up leaving from the west face of the mountain, you had intended to leave from the east. Is the east departure route easy to follow? I may just leave the same way you did. Thank you in advance. Cheers.

[@ScottishMountainGoat]

Hi Christian, sounds like an exciting trip! There's a link to the route on OSMaps in the video description. You can download the GPX file of the route there as well and import into AllTrails if you need it. You can head either east or west down the mountain, though heading west is the more direct route back to the car if you park at the start location in the video description. There isn't a well defined path in either direction, but the western route I think is the easier one to follow. Hope that helps!

[@Cbermeo75]

@@ScottishMountainGoat Thank you, friend. I think I will stick to your suggestion and depart west

[@midlifeadventures77]

Did you come back down the same way ? I'm definitely going to climb this after watching this video . Stunning

[@ScottishMountainGoat]

No, headed back down the direct route to the car, which was a much boggier experience 😆

[@midlifeadventures77]

@ScottishMountainGoat ahh I see well I'm up for doing what you did to capture that view . Thankyou for your efforts my friend 🤙
