Facts and practical information

A' Mhaighdean is one of the least accessible of the munros in northern Scotland. It is 8 miles north of Kinlochewe but most easily accessible from Poolewe, taking a private road South East to Kernsary. A good track then leads to the causeway between the Fionn Loch and Dubh Loch. Follow the path eastwards to about the 1,000 feet level and cross the Allt Bruthach an Esain to gain the North West ridge of the mountain. ()
