- Torridon - The Other Side
A grand day out on a very seep mountain in Torridon. Going in from The Beinn Eighe nature reserve gave me a different perspective of Torridon and especially Beinn Eighe. A fantastic hike but not one for those who don't like steep unstable slopes!! Note - I may refer to the summit of Spidean Coire nan Clach as Ruadh Stac Mor (on more than one occasion - my bad! doh!)

Often wondered about the less-visited side of the Torridon triptych. Fantastic viewing, and really great to see you back to your usual self again Murray.
Fantastic stuff Murray great to see you back out again man 👍🏴
Alan Guthrie thanks Alan - feeling a lot better thankfully 🙏
Great to see you back out and about Murray! Amazing place.
Another great vid. I’m sure many of us have stood on the Torridon peaks and looked at the lands to the North. You’re very lucky to be able to do this on a regular basis. I need to get back up there again in 2021.
Breathtaking Murray. Thanks for sharing with us all your fantastic videos and enthusiasm which is so contagious,as it should be . Thank you 😊
An excellent job of capturing the dramatic scenery of the Scottish Highlands as always. A great video👏
Fantastic way to get back into it again :-) Brilliant video :-)
Thanks Don 🙏
Been wanting to head out that way for a while and get some footage for my own channel! Awesome video! Thanks for sharing!
Great views. Makes me want to hop on a plane and come do it myself.
As per, awesome stuff.
Thanks Murray.
Thanks for sharing this fascinating looking less frequented area. It looks really interesting.
Seems like the possibilities are endless in that area. Another nice trip. All the best. L&D
On the Adventure Trails - Scotland thanks Folks - can’t go wrong in Torridon - amazing area 👌👍⛰⛰

I am amazed....you actually gravel surfed down the side of that mountain!!.....It's great to see you back out on the mountains and valleys again.....I'm also glad that you chose a nice 'easy climb' for getting back into shape....haha😀
Looks wonderful
Absolutely stunning view Murray, Beautiful area. Nice one!
Scottish Mountain Goat thanks Kris 👍
Cracking Murray! Steeper than what I'd thought it would be, but looks like you could get a cheeky summit camp on the grassy patch. Got all those Corbetts on my radar, particularly Flowerdale ones.
Hi Robin - its steep one alright!! - the mossy spot would be ideal providing it wasn't too windy - not many other grassy areas for a pitch !!lol A cracking day out though :)
Another good one Murray Thanks for taking us along to see the fab views.Think I will give it a miss though I hate shale !!! Atb :D Teddy
Thanks Teddy - definitely not a hill to visit if you don't like steep loose rock ground :) lots of other great walks around here though , Torridon is a heaven for hill walking :)

What a phenomenal video Murray, one of my favourites so far! I climbed Beinn Eighe when I was 11 and it’s always been my favourite range to date. Makes me miss home :(
Great video thanks for sharing. ⛺👍

Nice vlog, been there a few times and it’s great 👍
Good to see you back on the hill Murray and clear of the dreaded Lyme disease. I'm heading up to Assynt via Torridon in a week's time and crossing my fingers for similar weather. Thanks for sharing your cracking vlog. All the best.
Thanks Ian - feeling alot better now and keen to get out a much as possible - the mountain mojo has returned! Good luck for good weather on your trip - have a great time :)

Thanks Murray. And if you don't mind my asking, which action camera are you using? Your footage is much sharper and with less vibration than I can get on my old GoPro Hero 2 which I'm looking to replace.
Oh, and if anyone else is reading this....ticks are still about in the countryside. Just taken a dead one off Meg, my border collie after our walk on Arran on Friday
Ian Tupman hi Ian - I have a GoPro 6 - stabilisation and sharpness much better than my older GoPro 3- there will be a new GoPro 8 coming soon though which will probably be best one yet 👍
Just wanted to say thank you for the films. They are so useful for planning and finding new areas to explore. I do a lot of mountain biking and it’s so great to see the landscapes you travel through from that perspective.
Unfortunately I live near Penzance so don’t get up as much as I’d like. It was a 14hr drive to Torridon for us when we came up in May!
So, thanks again for the fantastic content. 😀😀😀😀
ah - that is a long drive!!! I was in Torridon recently (new vlog coming at some point) and it still takes me 3-4 hours from Perthshire, but 14hrs is a tad longer.... Always worth it though when you get to Torridon, such a magical place :)

Torridon is wonderful and the Corbetts there are fantastic hills.

Always amazes me how many loose rocks and boulders are scattered about. That one was strewn with them.
Top stuff Murray !! one of the many hills on Beinn Eighe Massif !! glad you got it .. 👍
Thanks Larry , was back up one of the other tops in he snow last weekend - video will be out in a few weeks (depending if I get time to edit it!!), love Torridon , such a fantastic hiking area :)

This really is a brilliant video. It's videos like these which are inspiring me to go to places few people visit. I'm heading for Fuar Tholl and Sgorr Ruadh to do a bothy stay in February - a couple of nice winter mountaineering adventures. Before then though, I may try find somewhere even more desolate. Suggestions would be most welcome.
DiZZy ViZiON anywhere that’s not a Munro or Corbett should do it 😉😂 Enjoy Fuar Tholl is an amazing Mountain - enjoy when you go 👍👍

@@ScotlandsMountains Cheers Murray
Good health to you.

Looks fantastic, can't believe how much scree there is. I thought when you were coming down you were heading for another lay off.
I did wonder my actions on the way down also !!;)lol However all sides of this mountain were steep, no easy way off :)

Good, interesting tip[. We've been up most of the classic big ones i Torridon so may give this a go sometime, cheers
You dont half show us some amazing places and that looked and immense day out. Atb
Just bumped into this video ~ it’s on my doorstep (so to speak) and generally don’t do that well in some of my attempts at altitude these days 😢. I tend to do low ish level walks. Looking at the rocky trail near the top is out of my safety abilities 😢. Well done though …. I’ve just subscribed and liked…
You did mention (especially on way down) that it wasn’t your planned decent and looked treacherous ¿ accidents can happen to anyone so I go by the saying “plan my walk and walk my plan “
Hey Murray well done... fantastic views and some really interesting geology...just a wee suggestion here.... I think it would be great to see you do some cooking Lol .. I'm interested in what you take for supplies.. ATB.. Superb Video Loved it.
VR_GAMERS oh no - that would be the worse vlog ever 😂😂 a trip to Greg’s or a tuna sandwich 🥪👌👍haha

@@ScotlandsMountains Tom Weir once told me he took mince, tatties and peas made up the night before and stored them in a milk bottle, gently simmered in a pot of water for 20mins.... No messy pots to wash up afterwards. 👍
Great video! Your feet actually sank into the gravel, the layer must be very thick there.
Yes a wee bit of proper scree - not enough for a proper scree run though :)
Thanks for watching

Scotland is a stunning place.
Glad we’ve got you to scramble up the side of Thoses mountains...got no head for heights myself.
it certainly is :) Torridon and the North West is absolutely magnificent :)

Looks very nice. How far is the hike? (I suffer from a dodgy knee which makes longer hikes/steep descents problematic). It's years since I've done some proper Scottish hikes (too many miserable midge experiences put me off, and France is much closer), but I really should get back - as you just showed, it can be glorious.
xxwookey this was a long hike TBH - if you check out the walkhighlands web page - that’s probably the best place for stats 👍 hope you get back to the hills soon - I can sympathise with having bad knees and a few operations in the past

Might break a bone and crush your friends below you while climbing, BUT THAT ASIDE it's worth it lol
Might want to check your geological timeframes
