Details for: Coulin and Torridon

The character of the West Coast mountains suddenly changes from high highland ridges to a much more rugged character. Dark red Torridonian sandstone now dominates the area. With spectacular sea lochs and high rising mountian around them this is arguably the finest area in the Scottish Highlands.

 

The Toridonian triptych of (Tom na Gruagaich and Sgurr Mhor) Benn Alligin, (Mullach an Rathain and Spidean'a Choire Leith) Laithach and Benn Eighe is regarded as one of the fines mountain ranges in scotland.
