Carn Loch nan Amhaichean

Rising from the remote moorland between Loch Vaich and Gleann Beag, this rugged Graham offers a solitary experience far from the busier Munros. Its broad, heathery slopes transition into a stony summit, providing a central vantage point over the wild glens of Ross-shire and the distant, bulky profile of Ben Wyvis.

• •The name translates from Gaelic as the 'cairn of the loch of the necks', likely referring to the narrow, constricted shape of the loch found just south of the summit.
• •The summit offers a clear, uninterrupted perspective of the Fannichs to the northwest and the massive, sprawling profile of Ben Wyvis to the east.
• •Accessing the hill usually requires a long approach through the lonely reaches of Gleann Beag, making it one of the more isolated Grahams in the North West Highlands.
• •If you encounter another walker on these trackless slopes, you have likely met the only other person in the county who prioritises obscure Grahams over the nearby Munros.
