Torridon is on my regular tour of the west coast of Scotland. Coming up from Plockton, and via Applecross the scenery with mighty Monroe mountains coming down to the shore is spectacular. Stay at the Torridon Inn, or book a cheaper B & B, but try to book a very posh meal at the Torridon Hotel. You will be very well looked after, but it is very expensive. Visit the Tourist Centre at the top of the loch. Useful info here. There is a single track road along the north shore, but it is very long, slow and hard work. When leaving you will carry on to Kinlochewe. The glen is delightful, with a stream rushing over its rocky course. The mountains tower above you and their size staggers the senses. Geologists will have a field au considering the complexity of the landscape. For example, the compressed sandstone from times when this part of the world was nearer the equator. Visit the Ben Eighe info centre on the road just outside Kinlochewe on the way to the coast. Don't take the sat nav route to Ullapool. You will miss all the delights of Gairloch, Poolewe and Gruinard Bay.

5. East Church

Reviewed By machinmad - Norwich, United Kingdom
This picturesque ramble starts by the shoreline, works past the church, with commanding views right and left to two Firths. Ignore the oil rigs. It slowly winds up hill, past a Neolithic rock hunting ground and pushes upwards quite steeply to reach a viewpoint, with one seat. Take sometime here to admire the view and look for dolphins, because this is the best viewpoint on the walk. There’s absolutely no view when you reach the small car park at the top!
