Description

4 day guided trip for small group from Christian Aid, exploring `wilderness spirituality`. Walked into Shenevall on day 1, camping outside and using bothy for cooking/chatting as it was otherwise empty. Day 2, walked to bealach between A Mhaighdean and Ruadh Stac Mor and pitched camp before climbing these two hills. Overnight there was a fairly hefty thunderstorm which ran up Loch Maree to our south, never coming closer than 3 miles, but causing a bit of concern until it was clearly past us.
Day 3 was beautiful morning, and we made an early start heading over the remaining 3 Munros of the `Fisherfield 6` and then camping near NH 090 787, which has good water supply, but got pretty `midgie`. Final day consisted of a walk out to Coire Haille and down to Aviemore for lunch and a debrief/reflection on the trip.

Area : Loch Maree to Loch Broom and The Fannaichs

This area contains four main sub-regions: An Teallach, The Fannaichs, Kinlochewe & Letterewe. The highest Munro is Sgurr Mor, part of The Fannaichs range, at a height of 1110m. The impressive Slioch (981m), although not the tallest, is described by the SMC Munros Guide as being ‘one of the great sights of the Northern Highlands’ and well worth a visit. This area sits to the north of the A832 and is almost completely devoid of human habitation.
