Scottish National Trail: Craig to Kinlochewe
Torridon
This exceptionally beautiful stage begins by climbing steeply through forestry to Coulin Pass, then gently down an open valley with Beinn Eighe in view ahead. Continuing through a rural setting along the River Coulin, the path becomes more difficult as it enters a felled forest and regenerating growth before emerging at Kinlochewe.
