Beinn a'Chlaidheimh is a north-eastern mountain of the remove Letterewe Forest, situated 3 kilometres north of Sgurr Ban.
The summit ridge of Beinn a'Chlaidheimh is quite narrow and it's western slopes drop very steeply into Gleann na Muice. It is an elongated mountain with gentler slopes on the eastern side rising to more moderate slopes with rocky outcrops near the summit point where the munro is usually accessed. . To the north of Beinn a' Chlaidheimh there are a series of discontinuous sandstone cliffs that drop steeply to Strath na Sealga.
It is very important is to recognise the seriousness of the river crossings at Shenavall and Larachantivore. These are big rivers and come up very quickly in times of heavy rain making them totally impassable. If in any doubt at all don't try and cross.
