Itinerary description

08/31/2015
The route ascends to Stac Pollaidh, advancing along the top of the ridge, so it can be complicated or not optionally with climbing and detouring along the highest part. the rock is very adherent although loose in some points.
In relation effort / reward is one of the best routes, since from above we can see the rest of summits, an infinity of lochs, the sea, the Summer Islands, etc.
It is a simple and comfortable route that I have classified as moderate because of the aforementioned of possible climbs and detours. The worst is the midges of the initial part of the route that literally eat you as soon as you stop. Surely it will be better at another time than summer to avoid them.
