ROUTE 10

Beinn Odhar Bheag little dun-coloured mountain and Beinn Mhic Cedidh MacCedidh’s mountain

Start5km W of Glenfinnan (NM 85650 81330)Distance13km (8 miles)Total ascent1310m (4300ft)DifficultyAll the ridges on this route are rocky and although there are grassy ways through the crags, route-finding would be difficult in mist. The ridge between Beinn Odhar Mhor and Beinn Odhar Bheag is complex and would be particularly difficult in poor visibility. There is some rough grassland to climb on the ascent and boggy terrain on the descent.Time6hrSummitsBeinn Odhar Mhor (870m), Beinn Odhar Bheag (882m, 2895ft), Beinn Mhic Cedidh (783m, 2350ft ring contour)MapsOS Landranger 40AccessPark in a large layby about 5km W of Glenfinnan on the A830 where the railway comes alongside the road on a sweeping right-hand bend.

Beinn Odhar Bheag and Beinn Mhic Cedidh are rocky peaks in the NE corner of Moidart just W of Glenfinnan. As well as interesting ridges, there are good views in all directions. Beinn Odhar Mhor is the dominant mountain when viewed from Glenfinnan, but it is about 10m lower than its twin summit, Beinn Odhar Bheag. Beinn Mhic Cedidh was shown about 200ft lower on the 1 inch:1 mile OS maps and was only promoted to Corbett status when the 1:50,000 OS maps were published.
