The coastline of Wester Ross features large bays with sheltered sea
lochs leading off – but the dominating feature is the dramatic backdrop of mountains. These rise spectacularly from low moorland to give a constantly changing vista as we sail past. Well know and instantly recognisable peaks such as Suilven, Culs Mor and Beag, Stac Pollaidh, An Teallach, and the Carnmore group (which includes a’Mhaighdean – the most remote munro) brought back memories of wonderful hillwalking in this area and reminded of the need to return. The photo shows the Torridon hills from off the mouth of Loch Gairloch as we neared the entrance on a fine summer evening.
