Corbett · Argyll & Bute

Beinn Bhuidhe

Remote-feeling Argyll Corbett between Loch Fyne and Glen Fyne. The long approach up Glen Fyne weeds out the casual baggers — it's a proper day out.

Standard route

Long walk-in along the Glen Fyne hydro track from the head of Loch Fyne. Steep climb up the southeast flank to gain the summit ridge. Best done on a long summer day.

Terrain

Long, easy approach on tracks. Steep, rough hillside above. Pathless on the summit dome.

In winter

Long approach makes winter ambitious unless you cycle the glen. Real winter mountain conditions on the upper slopes.
