Summit of Ben Nevis following the classic route.
Not a high summit and not a difficult/technical hike. The main difficulty of Ben Nevis is the fact that the route starts almost at sea level and is a relentless ascent from start to finish. And the mountain plays a bit with the hiker from the middle of route onwards as there are many points where you believe you have reached the top only to realize that the top is not still on sight. I did it in excellent weather conditions. In bad weather this is not the same aninmal and difficulty increases in my opinion by a significant degree (also going down).
