From the Wikipedia article
Am Faochagach (953 m) is a mountain in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland. It is located in Wester Ross, north of the main road to Ullapool. A rounded peak, it is surrounded by moorland and bogs, and a river crossing, which makes the approach to the mountain difficult from the road. However, the ascent itself is simpler.
