Detailed route description and map

An Ruadh-stac, from Coulags

Other routes and challenges

The above route can be combined with the Munro, Maol Chean-dearg. The Bealach an Ruadh Stac - used on the route above - could be reached via stalkers' paths from Annat on Loch Torridon, but this is a much longer approach.

It is possible to ascend from the south over Ruadh Stac Bheag, but very rough ground and few paths act as deterrent.
