Sgùrr Thuilm (193) and Sgùrr nan Coireachan (206), 25th September 2025


Heading up the lovely Glen Finnan


Looking back down the glen, from north of the bothy


View south from camping spot


Camping with the sun going down


Beginning the ascent of Sgùrr Thuilm, looking back down to the wee dam


Looking across to Sgùrr a’ Choire Riabhaich with Sgùrr nan Coireachan in the cloud


The slopes easing as I get further up onto Druim Coire a’ Bheithe with Sgùrr Thuilm in the background (in the cloud)


Meall an Tàrmachain and Beinn Gharbh are the two bumps on the ridge just below the cloud


Looking back down Druim Coire a’ Bheithe with Glen Finnan behind


Summit of Sgùrr Thuilm



Heading along the ridge - spot height 858 m ahead


A glimpse of the viaduct


Heading for Beinn Gharbh next



Looking back along the ridge



View to Loch Morar, before the ascent of Meall an Tàrmachain


View north to the Glen Dessary hills: Sgùrr na Ciche, Garbh Chìoch Mhòr and Sgùrr nan Coireachan


The last ascent to Sgùrr nan Coireachan


Sgùrr a’ Choire Riabhaich


View back along the ridge with Sgùrr Thuilm almost out of the cloud


The path up goes right, round the rocky face


Approaching the summit cairn of Sgùrr nan Coireachan




Sgùrr Thuilm finally out of the cloud


Sgùrr a’ Choire Riabhaich


Don't hang about under these!



Looking back up at Sgùrr a’ Choire Riabhaich



Sgùrr nan Coireachan summit cairn is now clear



The full ridge between Sgùrr nan Coireachan and Sgùrr Thuilm


Dropping down steeply - the stalkers path down Leachd an Doire Chuilinn is off to the left


Looking back up ridge




Stalkers paths are always the perfect gradient


Sròn a’ Bheithe


Finally back home


I suppose in an emergency you'd use it


My pack horse


The Harry Potter nutjobs
