Description

This is a very rewarding walk, in three parts; first a gradual climb to a plateau at 1,000ft, a spell on the plateau, then a steep descent to Tomich. At the start of the walk it's interesting to visit the Chambered Cairn (information provided at the site). The early part of the route passes through an RSPB nature reserve, on the plateau and on the descent to Tomich there is a succession of lovely views. The paths on the early and later sections are broad and well-surfaced; the middle part has a narrow, single-track path and can be muddy in bad weather. Boots are necessary and walkers should be reasonably fit. There are refreshments at Tomich Hotel.

Access Info

1) About seven miles out of Drumnadrochit on the A831, turn off at the sign 'Corrimony Cairn .75 mile'. The car park is on your left just before the cairn (NH385303).

2) In Tomich park where you can; it's a very small village...
