A distinctive multi-topped massif in the wild country between Torridon and Loch Maree, Baosbheinn is one of the most charismatic hills in an area not known for mediocrity. If it made Munro height there's no doubt it would be better known and heavily trodden, but though it has to rate among the greatest of the Corbetts, with an impressive Torridonian character and expansive views, it seems unlikely ever to be busy. Baosbheinn can be combined in a long circuit with neighbouring Beinn an Eoin, or even a massive Corbett triple-header yoking in Beinn Dearg too; but the shorter route described here offers a good flavour of the hill with less commitment.
