    Hiking

    Carn Ghluasaid, a Munro mountain of 957m sits fairly close to the A87, next to Loch Cluanie. A good path leads up from the road. It's a great vantage point to enjoy the south Glen Shiel Munros and also look along the many mountains that make up the north Glen Shiel ridge.

    This munro is very easy to walk up to, very good quality path that never really gets steep and if it does there is very nice zigzag to help you.
