Ben Klibreck
Summary
Ben Klibreck is a huge, isolated massif rising high at the heart of the vast, empty moorlands that comprise the central part of Sutherland. This route avoids the worst of the bogs by making an enjoyable approach along the ridge, through there are still a couple of wet sections. The fabulous summit views are of a remarkably empty land.
Terrain
Rough hill path, boggy and indistinct on some sections, with a steeper final ascent.
Public Transport
None.
Start
Layby at NC532271.
