Cùl Mòr

Cùl Mòr is one of the remarkable mountains that characterize the Assynt region in the far northwest of Scotland. These peaks stand like isolated giants, dominating an enchanting landscape dotted with lochs and lochans.

The route begins on a well defined trail for the first two kilometers, but becomes off-trail thereafter. However, the terrain remains relatively accessible, and orientation isn't too difficult if you're equipped with the right tools, such as a GPS. Beware, however, of a steep and slightly vertiginous passage in a large scree just before reaching the first summit.

The main summit of Cùl Mòr is characterized by imposing boulders, while the western plateau offers a vast, almost flat expanse of grass. Crossing the summit is a truly enchanting experience: the breathtaking panoramas all around rival each other in splendor. A unique experience for lovers of wide open spaces!
