Mountain Description
|
|
|
Meall Buidhe and Luinne Bheinn are steep rocky mountains in the remote Rough Bounds of Knoydart. Meall Buidhe is a complex mountain with two peaks on its summit ridge, the true summit lies to the NW and at the other end is the South-east Top (942m). From the summit, ridges run N to Druim Torc-Choire and W to Druim Righeanaich giving an easy route from the path in Gleann Meadail. From the SE top ridges run NE to Meall Coire na Gaoithe'n Ear, which is the route to Luinne Bheinn, and SE to Sgurr Sgeithe. An alternative ascent route on S slopes is from Mam Meadail to the col between Meall Buidhe and Sgurr Sgeithe.

This whole area is a delight. Take a tent and spend a few days at Barriesdale or stay at the Bothy. The drop into the corrie, from this summit heading for Mam Barriesdale, is hard walking. It is worth considering going along the ridge and dropping into the corrie on the west side of Lunnie Bheinn. May be longer but easier walking.
