Mountain Description
|
|
|
An Ruadh-stac is a compact triangular pyramid attached to Maol Chean-dearg (Munro) at Bealach a' Choire Ghairbh by its NE ridge. The path through this bealach, which runs between Coulags and Annat on Loch Torridon, is the best approach route. An Ruadh-stac is a rough rocky mountain and any ascent will involve a degree of scrambling, but with good route selection this should be minor. Can be climbed along with Maol Chean-dearg (Munro).

The common ascent up its South East side is very enjoyable because of its extremely rocky nature. Easy scrambling is required at times and it is also quite steep but the views from the top are very good and the route is not overly long, with the recommended route time of 5 hours pretty accurate. I would suggest adding it to an ascent of Maol Chean Dearg due to their close proximity to one another.
