- This walk is to the remote Seana Bhraigh Munro within the Beinn Dearg range. Starting from Inverlael car park the walk goes through the forrest before heading left to height. A great day but a bit breezy so sorry about the wind noise.
Oh, I did enjoy that, Charlie. One of my favourites. A long walk in, then that steep summit and the wee lochan doon in the corrie. Thanks very much.
Hi Geoffrey, Was that not a cracking day, just terrific when you have a clear weather window on a classic top. Cheers, Charlie
Thank you for this excellent video. Seana Bhraigh was the first Munro I climbed, and I approached from an unusual direction. I was working as a shepherd on the farm in Glen Achall (many moons ago when I had just left school) I asked the boss if I could climb it on the Sunday and drove up the track to the gap between Glen Achall and Glen Damh. It was a fairly easy walk up from there. If you don't mind me saying, the correct pronunciation of Seana Bhraigh is Shena Vray, the Bh combination makes the V sound. The translation is old brae (slope). On the way back I took a slight detour over Meall nam Bradhann (hill of the salmon) and came across an old village, totally deserted, a result of clearances in the area. Wished I had a camera! 👍
Hi McConnachy, What a great top for your first Munro, everything after that will be downhill 😂
A visit to the deserted village must have been a great but strange experience. Cheers
When a friend and I followed the same route, many years ago, the top 1000 feet was done in cloud. From memory the path petered out and navigating past the dip was challenging. Also, we had no idea of the cliffs at the back of the summit cairn.
Though a long walk in the views are spectacular from many vantage points particularly from the summit. Super video. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Charles, It’s definitely a top you want for a clear day as it isn’t fully appreciate until the summit. Many thanks for taking the time to view. Cheers, Charlie
did wyvis in the morning, faochagach in the afternoon , beinn dearg 4 the next day in the mist , woke on saturday 1st of july to do this but the rain was hammering down got one wee break so i walked up to the wee bridge , if you look to the left there is a wee path that leads you to a weir with a pretty dramatic short water fall , the rivers and burns were in spate so will be back for this , great vid at least you got to see where you were going 👍
excellent as always
Hi Sue, Many thanks. Glad you enjoyed our trip to this classic Munro, its a beauty. Cheers
Wow! Fantastic....
Hi Debbie, Many thanks for taking the time to view our latest outing. Just a stunning top and worth the effort. Cheers, Charlie.
@@charliemccartney7055 thanks for taking the time to reply. I watch all your videos and they are brilliant. We are hoping to head up north too next week and get a few done. Hope we get the weather and views you got. Looking forward to your next adventures! Well done and safe walking. Debbie 😀🥾
Fantastic guys.....
👍🏔
Hi Dave, Many thanks, it was a cracking day. Cheers Charlie
Brilliant great views , you both have amazing energy levels nice to see you do take a pit stop 🤗
Hi Janice, Yes, it was a cracking day and fortunately we managed to miss the rain forecast for the afternoon. A long walk but it still had over 1300m of height. Many thanks for watching. Cheers, Charlie.
Yet another glorious walk. This channel has inspired me in so many ways and remains my favourite Munro channel - the standard by which all others are measured. When I'm planning each trip I look and see your version of it (and add on several hours for my own time estimate). Wonderful and you will definitely catch me on the next one.

Hi Charlie's Dad, Absolutely terrific you enjoy our channel and get the opportunity to plan your routes after seeing the terrain. Many thanks for watching. Cheers, Charlie.
Nice one guys. I was planning this one soon, so nice to see the route beforehand. Lovely mountain once you get there, with the steep cliffs dropping into the corrie. Cheers, Andy.
Hi Andy, Hope you have a similar today to us. We'll keep our fingers crossed that you have a clear top once you go for it. Cheers, Charlie.
You have had a good few days up here in the North West. Great videos, the pair of you make me jealous. I am now needing replacement hips /knees on my replacement hips/knees as these ones have done a good few short Munro’s now. Many thanks for sharing. ATB
Hi John, I know what you mean as my knees are going the same way. Until then, the fight goes on. Glad you enjoy the movies. Cheers, Charlie.
Well done to the pair of you.
It's certainly a fair trek.
Hi Alistair, Its a heck of a long walk but certainly easier when the weather is as settled. Great views and rough corries, just great. Cheers, Charlie.
Did this one a few weeks ago lads. Bikes to the abandoned farm building then hiked the rest. Was so grateful for the bike back to the car. Took 6 hours. Would love to come across you two on a hill sometime. One of these days!
Hi Colin, Hope you had a clear top after your efforts.
You never know we might bang into on the hill some day providing my knees hang in there😂😂 Cheers Charlie
wow a long old trek that one Charlie! good to see it though and 28km for a single Munro is a big day....maybe next year 😊. Paul
Hi Paul, It's always great to get SB completed. Its a classic with mega views which are well worth the effort. I'm sure you'll enjoy it when it comes around. Cheers, Charlie.
Wow what a walk you and Mike completed your enthusiasm and stamina is bar one to do 28k in 7.5 hrs is going some for a such a remote Munro how do you get fantastic weather 😀 loved this video and commentary just brilliant 👏 also the last videos from the previous days walking just brilliant thanks Charlie 😊
Hi Philip, Glad you enjoyed viewing todays walk. We're fortunate the rain is coming through the night and leaving the day clear, so likely to see another walk tomorrow with a bit of luck. Cheers Charlie.
Excellent video really enjoyed watching 👍28k wahl
Hi Alan, Glad you enjoyed todays walk. A cracker with stunning views that the camera doesn’t do justice. Cheers Charlie
superb hill, gents!
Hello Travelling man. Glad you enjoyed viewing todays walk. Many thanks for viewing. Cheers, Charlie.
Another brilliant day out on the hill Charlie! Can I ask what it is your brother eats from the plastic containers? I'm always looking for ideas for hill food. Many thanks.
Hi Heather, It’s rice pudding with fruit cake or any other additions that you fancy. Choc chips is quite nice but anything to add the calories. Cheers, Charlie
@@charliemccartney7055 That's great, thanks for the info Charlie. I'll give it a go!
Another epic hike Charlie, brilliant capture of Mike standing atop the cliff with a sheer drop.
ATB Frank.👍🏔🥾
Hi Frank, It's a stunning cairn right on top of the crags. Very impressive and worth leaving for a good day as the surrounding views are stunning. Cheers, Charlie.
