Hikes to Beinn Alligin, the Jewelled Mountain, place you on a majestic massif and one of Torridon’s famous triptych, alongside sprawling Beinn Eighe and the monstrous Liathach. Where Beinn Eighe and Liathach are all bulk and bravado, Beinn Alligin hides its muscles beneath a graceful robe. This is a mountain of supreme beauty, soaring curves and graceful peaks, built on the same ancient, tiered sandstone of its boisterous neighbours.

Vandring

Charismatic and imposing, Beinn Alligin is the most westerly of the Torridon giants. Its views to nearby Liathach and distant An Teallach will tempt you to linger on the tops for hours. Incorporate the imposing scramble across the pillars of the Horns of Alligin into your route for a marvellous circular.

Vandring

The highest of the two Munros forming Beinn Alligin. Sgùrr Mòr provides spectacular views down to the Horns of Alligin as well as great views of the Corbett Beinn Dearg and the Munro summits of Liathach. It is an easy Munro to climb if doing a clockwise circuit, with an easy ridge walk from the lower Munro summit of Tom na Gruagaich.
The anticlockwise route over the Horns of Alligin is more challenging with exposed Grade I scrambling over the three Horns particularly if descending this way. In winter this becomes a serious Scottish winter mountaineering venture.

A wonderful hill that will reward in all weathers - but you do get the best views if the weather is good! Personally I have found the clockwise circuit better, but in either direction care is needed over the Horns.
