Ben Hope is a fitting peak to be the most northerly Munro, standing as it does in splendid isolation not far from the northern coastline of Scotland. The west side of the mountain, which overlooks Strath More and the head of Loch Hope, is very steep along its whole length, with two tiers of crags, the higher one forming the edge of the main south-north ridge of Ben Hope. The east side of the mountain has three fine corries, but they are rather remote and inaccessible, and consequently seldom visited. The north ridge is very steep and rocky with one difficult section, but the south ridge is much broader and has no difficulties, and is the usual route of ascent
