Aonach Buidhe via Glen Elchaig

Other routes and challenges

The ascent is almost invariably made along the long but lovely Glen Elchaig as described above; a mountain bike is a great help, but those staying at the very remote Maol Bhuidhe bothy are perfectly placed to explore the mountain's more dramatic northern side.
