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.
An exploration of the Flow Country and its peaks. From Forsinard train station I headed up Knockfin Heights and camed by the upper Halladale River. Traversing Knockfin I descended to Kinbrace and camped by the Corrish Burn. Moving the tent to the shores of Loch Druin a' Chliabhain I explored the twin peaks of Ben Griam Mor and Ben Griam Beg (the latter with the highest hill fort in Scotland on its summit). They may be small in height but they are big in stature! The final camp was by Loch an Ruathair and then a short walk back to the train at Forsinard. The whole route was practically all trackless and the terrain suitably tough for blanket bog country.
