Leave Ullapool heading north and you can’t miss Ben Mor Coigach. Its long, flat-topped form over to the east blocks the sea view and some of the sky. The chances are that you’ll be driving past on the way to the Assynt icons further north, and Ben Mor Coigach doesn’t look all that special from the car. But it is. Fluted prows of rock, steep scrambly ridgelines, incredible elevated ocean views, and a wild and spectacular coastal path all make it a mountain deserving of time and attention.
