Ben Nevis, Scotland's iconic mountain, offers two main hiking routes: the Mountain Track and the Carn Mor Dearg Arête. The Mountain Track is the easier option, starting at the Ben Nevis Visitor Centre car park and leading to the summit with zig-zag paths and stunning panoramic views. On the other hand, the Carn Mor Dearg Arête route is more challenging, requiring experienced hikers to navigate exposed sections and boulder scrambles for about 10-11 hours. Both routes promise a rewarding adventure amidst the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands.
