Sgurr Fiona and the Corrag Bhuidhe pinnacles from Bidein a' Ghlas Thuill , 4 kbSpearing out of the moors on the northern fringe of the wild Fisherfield Forest, this complex multi-topped massif is a major contender for most impressive mountain in Scotland status. The two Munros can be bagged without much more than some rough walking, but that misses the point in a big way because the full traverse of the hill is arguably the best hard ridge scramble on the British Mainland.
