Mountain Description
Glamaig is almost surrounded by the A87 road near Sligachan on Skye, suggesting that it can be climbed from almost any direction, but is an elongated conical hill with steep slopes of rock and scree which limits the ascent routes. Direct ascent from the W to Sgurr Mhairi or the E to An Coileach are both possible, but the prefered ascent is through Coire na Sgairde to Bealach na Sgairde

The route starting very close to the Isle of Skye Golf Club is regarded as easier than from Sligachan but it is still quite a steep and unrelenting climb. The scree section nearer the top can be avoided; however the views are superb and it is a very enjoyable route.
