With a different start and end point for this hike, we will arrange to meet at the end location for some car shuffling and sharing in the morning. Once we are at the start point we are straight onto the hill with a steep and continuous pull up to the bealach.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               Once we have reached the bealach we will stop for a quick refuel before making our way to the first Munro of the day, Saileag. The views throughout the day are outstanding from the surrounding mass of mountains and the loch below.
Onto the second Munro of the day with a short and simple arete taking us up to the summit of Sgurr a Bhealaich Dheirg. From here we will retrace our steps and then descend to the Col for the pull up to our final Munro of the day, Aonach Meadhoin. The day isn’t quite done yet , to avoid the steep flanks we will continue along the ridge line and over a subsidiary Munro top before descending back down towards the Cluanie Inn.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                     Once back down at the Cluanie Inn we will jump into the cars and head back back to the starting point to retrieve the rest of the cars.

This hike is suited to those with previous hiking experience and a good amount of hill fitness is a must!
