Suilven Hike and Wild Camp
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лип 2022
- Hike and Summit Wild Camp on one of Scotlands most iconic mountains. Suilven is in the the Assynt area of North West Scotland near the village of Lochinver.
Suilven forms a steep-sided ridge some 2km in length. The highest point, Caisteal Liath ("Grey Castle" in Scottish Gaelic)731, lies at the northwest end of this ridge. There are two other summits: Meall Meadhonach ("Middle Round Hill") at the central point of the ridge high, whilst Meall Beag ("Little Round Hill")723m lies at the southeastern end.
We had a brilliant tour and met a lovely lady called Louise who was camping as well.
One of my favourite Tours.

I was searching up Suilven for a camp hopefully next week and both you and stripey’s videos popped up. Looked a cracking camp, great weather too minus the wind
Brilliant camp mate..It was windy apart from where we camped on the summit due to the shape of the mountain..10m above us it was super windy as my drone was showing win warnings..It was bizarre..
Have a great time..You’ll love it there Robert 😍👌🏻

Easterly winds always bring the best weather to the West coast and Assynt. There is something about Suilven in particular, maybe spiritual.
Such an amazing place 😍👍.Well said 😍👌🏻👍

Thank Stripey 😁👍..Brilliant memories mate😁..As you say can’t wait for the next one 😁

@@murchiesmountains2820 absolutely! Already itchy but unfortunately the weather isn't on our side yet 😂
stunning views, i'm heading up there at the weekend, not sure i'll make it to the top but its just one of those mountains you have to see, i'm hoping to get both bags to the foot of the steepy steep hehe, and maybe even have a rest day around there before trying to get up there, really want to be able to fly up one side and down the other, its quite hard to plan it by bus, might have to spend the night in ullapool,
Brilliant Madmacs😍👍..It’s such a beautiful mountain mate..You love it..The area itself is so amazing as well mate..Hope your plan comes to fruition 😍..Some nice camp spots down at the Lochain before the steep bit..Have a great time mate 😍
Cheers
Robert

I’m planning to climb Suilven in Sept.
I hope weather be better than what it currently is.

That was class Robert, we’ll worth the long hike to get up there. Assynt is so totally stunning, been up there a couple times and it’s been breathtaking. You captured the views brilliantly and the Timelapse with the setting sun was awesome, that will live in the memory for a long time.
Well done again.👍🥾☀️🏔

Cheers
Robert
I've only ever saw Suilven from a distance many moons ago while in that area with my dad for a weekend fishing. We never did make it up there together but I'll need to get up and follow his footsteps after seeing this.
What a view all around, a tad windy looking but what views.
How long is the walk in would you say and is there plenty of camp spots on both summits?
Hi Scotsman Outdoors,It’s well worth a visit mate😁..It’s about 11km to the summit from the car park..Depending in the weight of your pack or fitness 3/4 hours ..It took us four but we were doing a lot of filming…Theres loads of camp spots on the west summit..On the east summits there are spots apparently unfortunately we didn’t go over due to the high winds…You’ll love it up there 😍
Cheers
Robert
Perfect @@murchiesmountains2820 it's always been on the list, now I can add that info to the plan.
Keep up the great work mate 👍🏼
@@AScotsmanOutdoors Cheers mate😁..Nice one 😁👌🏻
Top stuff mate, that'll live long in the memory that one. Similar conditions to what Kev and I got too. 🏕
Thanks Robin😁…Mate honesty it’s such a beautiful mountain and the surrounding area is phenomenal 😍..Defo going back up there soon 😁
Cheers
Robert
