Looking for an incredible beginners mountain?
This peak in Skye has it all. Challenging terrain and extremely rewarding views.
I wanted to visit the Isle of Skye from the moment a client mentioned it to me.
He said the Cuillin Hills are one of the best mountain ranges to climb in Scotland.
Our first mission was to climb Sgurr Alasdair, the highest mountain on Skye, located in an area of the mountain range known as Black Cullin.
The trail that leads us to the base of the mountain is itself an unforgettable hike, with unobstructed views of our Munro and the Scottish sea.
The main challenge we had in climbing our peak was the Great Stone Chute. A 300-odd meter slope of the harshest mountain terrain - scree.
The summit of Sgurr Alasdair had unobstructed views of all of the Munroes in the Black Cullin, and also of one of Skye's most famous routes - The Cullin Ridge traverse... A mission for another time.
