Ben Rinnes Walks

An ascent of Ben Rinnes will reward you with excellent views in all directions, taking in much of North East Scotland, the Cairngorms and as far afield as Caithness. There are a number of different ways to the summit of Ben Rinnes. All are good and straightforward walks. An ascent from the east on a good path followed by a descent northwards and back to your start point by the track along the east flank is recommended and is probably also the easiest. Summit Height: 520 metres
