Ben Starav (1,078 m) dominates East Glen Etive in the West Highlands and the “Ben Starav 5” is a long, committing Munro round linking Ben Starav with Beinn nan Aighenan (960 m), Glas Bheinn Mhòr (997 m), Stob Coir’an Albannaich (1,044 m) and Meall nan Eun (928 m). Starting from Glen Etive (commonly near Coileitir), the circuit is around 24km (14 miles) with roughly 2,500 m of ascent and typically takes 10–14+ hours, making it a serious mountain day requiring strong fitness and solid navigation skills. Lower sections can be boggy, with steep, rocky climbs onto broad ridges and exposed high ground where wind and poor visibility can make route-finding complex, but in clear conditions the views over Loch Etive and the surrounding peaks are exceptional.
