Aonach Mòr

Aonach Mor, the smallest of the Aonachs, is located 3 kilometers north of Ben Nevis and is best known for housing the Nevis Range mountain resort, which features the UK's only mountain gondola. The peak is most commonly ascended from the south, via Glen Nevis, and in conjunction with Aonach Beag.


Locals had been skiing around Aonach Mor for years before the ski resort was built, using the mountain's natural top bowls (ideal for collecting large amounts of snow). The Nevis Range was first opened to the public in 1989 and has grown steadily since then, becoming known for having some of Scotland's most easily accessible freeride skiing. The UHI Mountain Bike World Cup has made the Nevis Range a world-famous downhill mountain biking stop, with thousands of fans flocking to Fort William to watch bikers hurtle down the technical 2.6km downhill track as fast as they can.
