RegionKintail & Glen Affric
Càrn Ghluasaid, the 'cairn of movement', stands over the north shore of Loch Cluanie and fills the view as you drive towards Kintail from the east. Its top is flat and plateau-like, and the cairn sits near the edge of the steep corries that fall north into Ceannacroc Forest. A good stalkers' path climbs it from Lundie, and long grassy ridges link it to Sgùrr nan Conbhairean.
