Spurr a'Chaorainn

Sgurr a'Chaorainn is comparatively small by Scottish standards being only 761 metres high.  Yet it has an air of majesty and remoteness common to the tough hills of Ardgour. There are no paths other than deer tracks.  It is more correct to say I didn't find any human paths apart from a sketchy track through the Glen.

I biked through the lovely Ariundle Oakwood National Nature Reserve on good forestry tracks and left the bike at the edge of the forest.

After a long walk up the Glen I faced the challenge of the very steep slopes.

Hot but happy, I reached the summit which contained the usual views of near and far hills.  Mull is in the far distance.

One view new to me, was looking straight up distant Glencoe.
