An Coileachan is the easternmost of the Fannichs, a steep-sided dome rising to the south of Loch Gorm. Whilst it is only a short distance from the track to Loch Fannich, the usual approach from the north is a long slog across the bogs.

Other routes and challenges

An alternative approach to the Fannichs is from the south, particularly if a bike is used as far as Fannich Lodge.

Many different combinations of summits can be done, such as including the '/ullapool/sgurrnanclachgeala.shtml'>Sgùrr nan Clach Geala group for three more Munros, or even the ultimate epic challenge: the great traverse of all 9 Fannichs Munros.
