The Horns of Alligin

This circular walk on Beinn Alligin takes in the two munro Sgurr Mhor & Tom na Gruagaich and includes the Horns. A cracking day, low temperatures with a strong breeze blowing most of the day.

Looking north from anywhere from the tops of those Torridon hills is looking into an abyss - no roads, just wild country and more hills. I remember the walk-in a couple of times to the Horns - nice long walk over really wild country. Great videos, Charlie, to bring good memories back.

Hi Ted, Its great that you were able to get a memory blast from this upload. Torridon is certainly a special place to visit and we are hopefully of repeat the horns loop within the next few weeks. It's such a joy returning to these classic tops. Cheers

Stunning film; thank you for letting us tag along :)

Hello Charlie. I've watched this one previously. You had a great day weather-wise and it's unusual to tackle the route anti-clockwise. If I did this again, I'd copy you. Neil

[@charliemccartney7055]

Hi Neil, I've just watched this again and what a cracker it was. We are planning another visit soon but it'll be hard to beat this day. We generally prefer doing the horns first providing the wind direction is ok. Cheers

I’ve done the round 3 times but I could do it 300 and still not tire of it. The clarity is fantastic, what a day you had.

Great vid as usual guys.Sat down thinking you were going to take us on a winter wonderland tour of Torridon but the snow in it's early stages up there eh,lol.I done that route the opposite way round to you guys.Deffo one of my favs so far and often thought it would be good in full winter conditions as it is not that long.Thanks for sharing😎👍

[@MarkoRicho]

Like all of your videos Charlie, a wonderful and inspiring insight

[@scotthoward5098]

I keep viewing this vlog; the scenery is just jaw dropping. Superb work

[@charliemccartney7055]

Hi Scott, One of the classic mountains in easily the best glen in Scotland. Many thanks for viewing. Cheers, Charlie

[@revcole7]

Fantastic footage of a superb mountain. Only climbed it once myself with a good friend, and the conditions were not so kind! Thanks for allowing us to tag along.

[@charliemccartney7055]

Hi Cole, Glad you enjoyed our trip on this classic mountain. We've experienced a variety of condition on this mountain but generally been luck that our visits matched the weather window. Many thanks for watching and take care, Charlie.

[@MUNROSnCORBETTS]

That was brilliant C&M! What amazing views you two got. 5-5 hours, Yer slowing doon a wee bit you two LOL! Once again you have made another classic film :)))

[@lairdoharray]

Yet again, many thanks. This area is absolutely magnificent and you have captured this for us all. I'm plucking up courage for a trip next year.

[@charliemccartney7055]

Hello Lairdoharray, You'll enjoy the experience next year on these classic mountains as Torridon is easily, the best glen in Scotland. Take care, Charlie.

Brilliant Charlie, what a day you two got, amazing views of those fabulous hills. Got up Tom na Gruagaich a few years ago but had to abandon in terrible weather, this excellent film shows what I missed, get back one day hopefully. Thanks for sharing. Mick.

[@gavinstewart4574]

One of the best views I've seen yet on the Scottish hills. Loving your videos 👍

[@charliemccartney7055]

Hi Gavin, Glad you enjoy looking through our hill walking trips and many thanks for watching. Cheers, Charlie.

[@craigalexmckay]

Excellent filming, just beautiful. We’re doing it on Saturday God willing, and this was a great summary. Thanks!

[@charliemccartney7055]

Hi Craig, The weather is looking settled for Sat and I hope you have a terrific day on this classic mountain. I'm sure you'll enjoy the day as the landscape in Torridon is stunning. have a great walk. ATB, Charlie.

[@geoffreysutton760]

Not much snow, Charlie. I mind when one of those Munros was upgraded, a nice wee bonus. One of your best videos for capturing the scale and atmosphere. Thanks.

[@Kev_Russ]

Nice one Charlie. What a day 😎

[@ACshinealight]

Brilliant Charlie

[@philip771]

Amazing footage. You chaps must have a good head for heights though; I doubt I'll ever do Alligin.

[@charliemccartney7055]

Hi Philip, Yes, it's an amazing mountain and always a joy to traverse. These tops always look worse than they actually are but the trick is picking a good weather day so you aren't fighting the elements where you can fully enjoy the experience. Cheers

[@johnatkinson1710]

Fantastic Guys what film, best ever of this area. Brings back a lot of great memories of times spent in this area. Thanks

[@kensayers75]

My first two Munros. Wish it was as clear as that. 👍

[@charliemccartney7055]

Ken, What a pair to start the munro journey but just a pity it wasn't clear. You'll have been on a few less spectacular munros since then lol. Cheers, Charlie.

[@wjoest6694]

Excellent video Charlie with such stunning views! Well done. I hiked Beinn Alligin in 2016 - up and down the route you took down. I thought the horns are too exposed - in your video the horns don‘t seem to be too exposed? ATB Wolfgang

You should use Strava to record your hikes and link it in the description for anybody that wants to do the same routes in your videos
