Mountain Description
Beinn Airigh Charr lies at the northern end of Loch Maree on the Beinn Lair (Corbett) range of hills running NW to SE. The loch and the River Ewe which flows from it form a barrier and necessitate a long walk in from Poolewe village. This is a rough mountain with many crags and rock outcrops, but a path leads from Ruidh Dorcha on the shore of Loch Maree onto its neighbouring peak, Spidean nan Clach (705m) and gives easy access. Moreover, the path from Kernsary to Letterewe through Srathan Buidhe leads to the easier SE slopes, thus the more difficult NE and SW slopes may be avoided.

A fantastic mountain. The walk in is fairly long and takes an hour at a strong pace, although the ascent isn't too difficult and a clear path (although sketchy in parts) takes you within several hundred metres of the summit. Summit views are absolutely superb, Fisherfield hills in the north and Torridons in south - almost unbeatable. I climbed this hill solo, 2008-04-18 on a blustery but otherwise sunny day with not a soul about.
