Naismith Hut, Assynt

Joe, Today, 12:03

Naismith Hut, Assynt (see here for details)

This hut is up in the far North West of the Highlands. It's a really nice part of the world and quite remote. The mountains of the area are quite small, most aren't even Munros, but they are some of the most unique mountains in Scotland. Stac Pollaidh is a wonderful rocky ridge in miniature and Suilven is an amazing mountain which looks different from every angle.

Nearby is the sea cliff climbing area of Reiff. This is one of the best areas for sea cliff climbing in the UK, according to many people, but because it's tucked away in the far NW, it isn't climbed on as much as other, more obvious places. There is also climbing on Stac Pollaidh.

There is hut space for 8 people on this trip so places are quite limited. Sleeping bags are needed but mattresses are provided.
