This epic mountain walk takes in three remote and exceptionally rugged Munros. The arduous effort required is rewarded with magnificent rocky mountainscapes throughout. Sgùrr na Cìche itself is one of the most shapely summits in Scotland and is a classic viewpoint.

Terrain

Extremely boggy terrain lower down and very complex rocky terrain on the higher ridges makes this a long and exhausting outing. Not a route to be underestimated.

Public Transport

No public transport along Loch Arkaig road.

Start

Car park at end of public road up Loch Arkaig. Open start point in Google Maps for directions.
