| The hills of Lochaber offer some fantastic low-level walking. This route follows a rough track past lochans and crags to the summit of Carn a' Mhadaidh-ruidh. From there, it heads to the shores of Loch Morar before returning to Arisaig. It's a lonely old spot - perfect for a day away from it all. Don't be fooled by the lack of height - if the weather turns bad, the surroundings quickly become hard to navigate. But I can guarantee you'll have the hills to yourself, save for the deer. | ||
