Mountain Description
Leum Uilleim is a remote hill to the N on Rannoch Moor, SW of Corrour Railway Station where there are no roads to give easy access. Leum Uilleim is a rough rocky hill connected to Bheinn a' Bhric by a high col (795m). The NE ridges of Leum Uilleim and Bheinn a' Bhric provide the obvious routes from Corrour and a circuit of Coir' a' Bhric Beag is recommended. The crags on Leum Uilleim can be by passed.

Super little ascent from Corrour station, though less super is boggy conditions! Wait for a frost or a prolonged dry spell to make the approach bog-hopping less taxing. A great vantage point to enjoy the solitude of Rannoch Moor and view the neighbouring glamorous Munros. The path from the station leading to the foot of the ridge is intermittent, and once on the ridge no path is necessary. An excellent introduction to winter walking, with the east ridge giving the hill a flavour of a real mountain, especially under snow.
