Mullach a' Ghlas-thuill

Standing as a rugged southern outpost of the An Teallach massif, this 792m summit offers a quieter perspective on the North West Highlands. Its position overlooking the remote shores of Loch na Sealga provides an exceptional, front-row view of the jagged Fisherfield Forest giants and the great 'wilderness' beyond.

• •The name is derived from the Scottish Gaelic 'Mullach a' Ghlas-thuill', meaning 'summit of the grey hollow'. This refers to the high, stony corrie it shares with its more famous Munro neighbor, Bidean a' Ghlas Thuill, situated just to the north.
• •The summit offers a specific and superior view of the 'Great Wilderness' to the south. Hikers can clearly identify the remote peaks of the Fisherfield Forest, including the sharp tooth of Sgùrr Ban and the massive bulk of Beinn Dearg Mòr across Loch na Sealga.
• •The hill acts as a topographical gateway for those approaching the An Teallach massif from the south. It rises steeply above the track to the Shenavall bothy, a legendary shelter for walkers exploring this corner of Wester Ross.
• •Its status as a Tump ensures it remains a quiet spot; most visitors to this glen are either heading for the Munro summits above or the bothy below, leaving this mid-height perch largely to the local red deer.
