Meallan nan Uan is certainly the more impressive of the duo with its triangular shape and scattering of crags. However the crags pose no problems and no scrambling is required on this easy ascent. Paths are hard to come by on this unfrequented hill which offers great views of Torridon and nearby Strathfarrar. I began the ascent at Strathanmore then onto Creag Ruadh before the final climb.
