ベイエッティー湖のおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Small loch directly below the climb up to Suilven, wonderfully atmospheric and scenic place.

As you get close to Suilven you wonder how yuo are going to get up there - but there is a steep path that takes you to the lowest point in the ridge.

When you top out onto the ridge itself you are confronted by a stone wall that runs across the line of the ridge and seems to divide the mountain in half, but there is a gap in it at the highest point. It seems this almost pointless wall was built about 180 years ago at the same time as the Destitution Roads, to give people work to do to earn money for food and clothing at the time of the Potato Famine.

Suileag Bothy is a wonderfully atmospheric place that feels as if it is in the middle of nowhere - which it is! The views across to Suilven from here are superb, particularly in good light. Watching the sun go down and Suilven begin to glow in that late light is an experience you will never forget.

Very handy footbridge, without it there would be a very wet crossing and in some conditions it would be impossible to cross. This footbridge is the start of a fine adventure.

The view of Suilven from Canisp shows this fine mountain from an unusual angle, different from the bald tower that you see from the Lochinver direction.

Amazing nature reserve to visit. Steps can be a little challenging for some but great views from the top and well worth the visit.

After about 3 km, the path is no longer visible. There are no signposts along the entire route. A hiker suggested simply heading towards the summit, but there is no path. We were lucky that it hadn't rained for a long time; I can't imagine how wet the path would be at the beginning in the moor otherwise. But the beautiful view at the end is definitely worth it.
