The Gairich scramble
Looking across the remote Glen Kingie from near the summit of Gairich. The path heads quite steeply up the mountain at this point, including this section that needs a bit of a scramble up the rocks.

Gairich moorland
Glen Kingie and Gairich. Not a particularly long walk to the summit of this mountain, however Loch Quoich is already a remote place to drive to. Adding a few more miles does make it feel like a hike into the wilderness.
