Mountain Trail

Welcome to this magnificent walk in the heart of Beinn Eighe Nature Reserve, the oldest nature reserve in the UK. This hike, the first and one of the few to be waymarked in Scotland, immerses you in a variety of environments, from magnificent Caledonian pine forests, through open moorland to a plateau of quartzite rocks. It offers breathtaking views of Beinn Eighe and Loch Maree below.

The path is perfectly maintained, but can be steep and uneven in places.
