Mountain Description
|
|
|
Beinn Dearg is just one metre short of a Munro and is the highest of the Corbetts. From Beinn Dearg summit a ridge runs NNW to Stuc Loch na Cabhaig which lies across the Bealach a' Chomhla from Na Rathanan, The Horns of Alligin. A much longer ridge runs E over an un-named top to Carn na Feola (761m). The E ridge has two spurs on its N face producing two corries. This is a steep sided mountain with some very craggy slopes. Perhaps the most appealling feature of Beinn Dearg is its location, giving superb views of Beinn Alligin (Munro), Liathach (Munro) and Beinn Eighe (Munro).

Climbed Beinn Dearg on Sun 27th May 2007. Absolutely brilliant day, weather wise and walking wise. Great views all round in crystal clear conditions. Took G.P.S with us and in my view should be upgraded. My reading was 920mtrs
