Mull's only Corbett, Dun da Ghaoithe is a dramatic seaside hill with huge views encompassing both the mainland and the island's rugged interior. A shorter ascent is possible from Scallastle, but the extended circuit descried here is a better route with more in the way of ridge walking.
Dun da Ghaoithe is a great walk. A few years ago we did a complete south north traverse. Left the car at the cemetery at Pennygown , caught the bus to Craignure and then walked back over all the hills. Fantastic views over the Sound of Mull watching the snow showers barrelling through.

I set off from near there one Saturday afternoon in December years ago. Walked up the ridge and saw a nice sunset from the top. Went down into Glen Forsa and struggled through the forestry ditches in the dark before finding the track, torch was in the car.
