Auchnafree Hill has an indistinguished summit of a rather sprawling moorland. However, it overlooks the impressive glacial trench of Loch Turret, making for an enjoyable hillwalk.

Terrain

Good tracks for most of the route; away from the tracks the plateau is boggy and featureless. Descent route is on fainter, rougher heather path, which eventually peters out.

Public Transport

None.

Start

Loch Turret dam car park. Open start point in Google Maps for directions.
