This area is situated on the north-western tip of Scotland and contains 4 Munros (from biggest to smallest); Ben More Assynt (998m), Conival (987m), Ben Klibreck (962m) and Ben Hope (927m). Also included in the mountains list are all of the peaks above 700m. The southern boundary is the road which joins Ullapool to Lairg and then to the A9.
I did this walk with another Meetup group. Shortly into the walk, I started feeling ill with waves of nausea. As a result, I struggled a bit, but the others were really helpful and patient. I was doubtful about whether I'd reach the summit, yet when the cairn appeared, I was astonished at how much easier it was than I'd expected. By the time we'd got back down, I was feeling a lot better. The nauseous feeling may have been due to filling up my water bottle in a stream near the bottom of the mountain, as I'd left my water behind.
