Fisherfield Forest is one of the remotest areas of the North West
Highlands, in the region of Wester Ross. It covers a Large area of
uninhabited country, some of which is maintained as Large deer stalking
estates. Within this region there are many opportunities for multi day
expeditions and two Bothy's offer basic shelter near the edge of the
area. The region also holds the remotest Munro in Scotland, which is
highly prized by the Munro Baggers. In the north is one of the finest
mountains in Scotland - An Teallach, "The Forge". The complete traverse
of this mountain makes for a strenuous and rewarding day.
Photographs from one visit.
In June 2004 I
completed a twelve day backpack across The Fannichs and Fisherfield
Forest. The photos here are mainly from the Fisherfield area, when the
weather was slightly better. |
