Applecross‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 산 정상

The Horns of Alligin are the mountain's finest features.

The first of the two munros on Beinn Alligin, with a huge cliff on its eastern side. Amazing views.

The views from this point are sensational, some of the best in Scotland.

Really fine Corbett that comes close to rivaling its bigger Torridon neighbours.

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.

I've climbed Beinn Alligin 4 times and as is mentioned above by To, the better way is clockwise, not anticlockwise as shown in the route planner. This gives a steady climb up to Tom na Gruagaich, but care is needed in mist as there is a sudden and very big drop at the summit. There follows a steady ridge walk to the main summit Sgurr Mor, then drop down to the beginning of the 'Horns' There is scrambling involved, but this is the finest part of the route. The drop down to the valley from the third horn is steep and requires care, but the way is obvious. Once back at valley floor level the walk out is pleasant amongst fine mountain scenery.

The North Top of Sgùrr a'Chaorachainn (773m) is the site of a multi-purpose radio communications mast. There is a good track up to here from the road.

Tom na Gruagaich is the lower of the two Munro summits on Beinn Alligin and is easily reached via the good path up Coire nan Laogh. The continuation path to Sgurr Mòr the highest Munro summit is straightforward.
