Climb the Trossachs' famous 'mountain in miniature'

Ben A'an's distinctive pointed summit is an iconic sight in the Trossachs landscape. Indeed, its name comes from the Gaelic for 'the small, pointed peak'.

There are panoramic views of Loch Achray from the car park at the foot of the mountain. Views from the top include the nearby lochs and peaks to the Arrochar Alps on the western shore of Loch Lomond.
