Background

Description

Beinn Bhuidhe is a 948 m Munro that lies separately from the main body of the Arrochar Alps. It is remote and unfrequented, situated to the north of the head of Loch Fyne between the upper reaches of Glen Fyne and Glen Shira. It is the only high hill in an extensive tract of featureless moorland between the head of Loch Lomond and Loch Awe. Its long summit ridge has three tops, the summit being the south-western one. Beinn Bhuidhe is much quieter than the Arrochar Alps proper, due in part to the 7.3 km walk-in along a private road before starting the climb.
