Twin-topped Ben Venue is one of the finest peaks in the Trossachs and makes for an excellent hillwalk. This is the main summit, though it's easy to miss as the main path bypasses it. The view across bonnie Loch Katrine to the wild tangle of the Southern Highlands is magnificent. The Cobbler's oddball form is obvious, while the Crianlarich Hills look impressive, particularly shapely Stob Binnein.
