Mountain Description
|
|
|
Ladhar Bheinn is a wonderful craggy mountain on the remote Knoydart Penninsula. It is a large and complex mountain with many ridges and corries. The summit ridge runs NW to SE where it intersects, at an altitude of 849m, a much longer ridge from Sgurr Coire Choinnichean in the SW to Creag Bheithe in the NE. Ladhar Bheinn can be access via this ridge by ascending to the bealach, Mam Suidheig, and traversing the narrow Aonach Sgoilte ridge to reach the main ridge. From the summit a craggy ridge runs NE, the Druim a Choire Odhair which offers an ascent route from the path to Barrisdale into Coire Dhorrcail. Further major ridges NE turning NNW to Mullach Li (668m) and NW to An Diollaid. A descent from the lochan on the NW ridge SW on grassy slopes leads to paths in Gleann na Guiserein.

John and Cassie at the summit. Apparently the views from here are fantastic. Wouldn't know as most of the day we couldn't see more than 10 metres. Another one on the ' To Do Again' list.

If planning an ascent from Barisdale I can recommend an alternative approach into Coire Dhorrcail: From Barisadale, continue NW along the coastline (good path) to the flat camping ground at NG 853 055. Don't cross the river, but look for a clearly seen stile that leads to an intermittent path (easy to follow) along the east side of Inbhir Dhorrcail and join the 'trade route' at about NG 852 044. It's worth it for the interesting coastal viewpoints.

Boat service now in Murray Morrisons hands at Arnisdale (01599 522774) will pick up / drop off anywhere in loch Hourn. £10 each way per person in modern metal boat to Barisdale = 10mins, even land with dry feet due to prow folds to become step onto shingle.Superb round of Coire Dhorrcail anti clockwise, path heads thro bracken into corrie bowl then steep pathless pull onto Druim a choire odhair ridge which narrows nicely to summit - no real scrambling. continue round to 849m point and traverse around left on faint path towards buttress and final short steep descent to mam barrisdale ridge.
