Ben Chonzie
Ben Chonzie, also known as Ben-y Hone,〔(On Ben Chonzie, real hillwalkers don't picnic ), Robin Howie, ''The Scotsman'', 19 November 2005〕 (Gaelic ''Beinn a' Chòinnich'', meaning "mossy mountain"〔Scottish Hill and Mountain Names, Peter Drummond, ISBN 0-907521-30-4〕) is a Scottish mountain situated eleven kilometres northwest of Crieff. It stands at 931 m (3054 ft) and is therefore listed as a Munro.〔The Munros (SMC Guide), Donald Bennett et al, ISBN 0-907521-13-4〕 It is the highest point of a large area of moorland and rounded hills between Loch Earn and Loch Tay, and with a broad, flat summit and relatively few distinguishing features, it is often regarded as one of Scotland's least interesting Munros.〔"...having a reputation of being one of the dullest Munros in the land" ''The Munros: Scotland's Highest Mountains'', Cameron McNeish, ISBN 0-947782-50-8〕 It is most often climbed from Invergeldie (Comrie)to the southwest; however it can also be climbed from the southeast by way of Glen Turret. The latter is longer but presents walkers with a more interesting and scenic ascent, having an array of buttresses and cliffs which can be tackled by those who feel brave, or passed by on either side.〔The Southern Highlands (SMC Guide), Donald Bennett et al, ISBN 0-907521-34-7〕 Mountain hares (''Lepus timidus'', sub species ''Lepus timidus scoticus'') can be seen around the plateau area if walkers are quiet and observant. There are also many other animals on the approaches to the Ben, including Buzzards, other birds of prey, and frogs and newts in the pools alongside the landrover track that runs up the eastern aspect of the loch. Deer may be seen on the slopes to the north of the Ben. == References ==
