The Cobbler
Arrochar
The Cobbler - also known as Ben Arthur - has the most distinctive outline of any mountain in the Southern Highlands and makes a fantastic short day out. Extremely popular, the path on the way up has been improved in recent years and once past the initial zig zags makes a pleasant ascent. This route explores both peaks of the Cobbler before descending on a rugged path between the two. Alternatively the route can be made easier by returning the same way.
Terrain - Clear paths with some steep rocky sections particularly on the descent.
Grade 3
Distance 11km (6.8 miles)
Ascent 920m (3018ft)
