A' Maighdean and Ruadh Stac Mor
|
Long strenuous route to two remote craggy mountains. There are routes between the crags so the need for scrambling is reduced. Cycling will shorten the time, but still a very long day.

Me and sons came off the summit of A'Mhaighdean over the very stoney ground (tough going) as we got to the valley floor we looked at what appeared to be falling rock down a face, we all said "surely that's not the way"? So we set off along the path to the east, that came to an end, we came all the way back again and started to follow the path to the west as we couldn't believe the way up was over the fallen rocks!! As it turned out, there is a small cairn indicating this indeed is the way up...........take care especially in the wet!!
