Date: Nights of Fri 6 & Sat 7 September 2019
Venue: Ling Hut, Torridon
Location: Hut is located on the south side of Glen Torridon at gird ref NG958562 (it’s about 750m walk from the car park). Google Maps
Facilities: Cooking and heating by propane gas. Solar powered electric lighting. Alpine-style bunks for twelve. According to the SMC’s website, there is even a drying room. I’ve not been for a few years, but it’s probably better to consider this as a room to hang up wet items.
Cost: £25 per person for the weekend (price corrected 30 Aug)
The Ling Hut is a good old fashioned mountaineering hut, so don’t expect luxury. However, the location better than any five-start hotel can offer. Beinn Eighe, Liathach, Beinn Liath Mhor and Sgorr Ruadh, Sgorr nan Lochan Uaine are all walkable from the door of the hut. All of the other Torridon hills are within a very short drive/cycle. There is also plenty of bouldering and climbing on the doorstep.
Don’t forget your sleeping bag. …and midge net.
