Stob Glas

Sitting high above Crianlarich at 830 metres, this rugged peak serves as a substantial western shoulder to Stob Binnein. Its steep, grassy slopes provide a demanding line from Glen Dochart, offering a quieter perspective on its famous neighbours and the distant Arrochar Alps to the west.

• •The name Stob Glas is Gaelic, translated as the 'Grey Peak' or 'Green Peak,' referring to the pale, weather-beaten grass and rocky outcrops that define its upper slopes.
• •Though it sits in the shadow of giants, it provides one of the best vantage points to appreciate the sheer scale of Ben More's pyramid across the deep cleft of the Ben More Burn.
• •The summit offers a clear, unobstructed line of sight down the length of Glen Dochart towards the village of Crianlarich and the distant, iconic silhouette of Ben Lui.
• •The ascent from the glen floor is a famously uncompromising experience; it is a relentless, knee-straining grass-pull that makes no concessions for those who prefer a zig-zag path.
