About A' Chailleach (Fannichs)
A' Chailleach stands at 997 metres in the western Fannichs of Wester Ross, offering a spectacular mountain experience within Scotland's remote Northwest Highlands. Its rugged summit overlooks the vast Fisherfield wilderness, with breathtaking views towards An Teallach and neighbouring Munros. Steep slopes, rocky outcrops and sweeping ridges give this mountain a distinctive character. Often climbed alongside Sgùrr Breac, A' Chailleach rewards walkers with expansive Highland panoramas, peaceful surroundings and the unforgettable beauty of Scotland's wild landscapes.
