My Wingman and I climbed A Mhaighdean many years ago but we didn't see much 'cos of the rain and mist! You were lucky with the weather.. Great walk, great video 👍
Many years ago, we walked from Kinlochewe and the path at Slioch to. Loch Fada. The view just before the descent to Fhionn Loch wash incredible. We stayed just after the causeway. Next day we walked by Shenaval and then to the main road. A great walk.
That sounds like a cracking a linear hike, and ironically I was looking at the map the other day considering a walk to Letterewe then over the pass to Fionn Loch.
Great vid Robin. Those views!!! Fisherfield is next on my list, at some point, keep gerting drawn further North, need to have a word with myself. Great vudeography 😊
Done Affric Kintail Way a few weeks ago. Seen less than 10 hikers during the 3 days hike. Love it more if not for the brutal weather. This will be on my bucket list for sure. Thanks for sharing - greeting from Singapore
Hi Donald, I quite fancy doing the Affric Kintail way, I’ve done bits of it and the scenery is decent once you get into Glen Affric. Fisherfield is a must and you could do a linear route if you could organise transport back to the start point.
That was one of your best Robin - really well done. I'm on the same Corbett count as you so the race is on 😜Aiming to finish on Beinn Dearg Mòr/Bheag after I saw your video of that pair.
The weather and views Robin. Breathtaking. My buddy and I camped near the causeway and climbed A Mhaighdean and Ruadh Stac Mor many years ago in similar conditions and I still rate the view from A Mhaighdean as the best in Scotland.
Cheers mate and I would probably agree about the view from a’Mhaighdean. I was blown away by the view first time up there. The view from Beinn Airigh Charr back to a’Mhaighdean would run it a close second imho.
Cheers mate, definitely nailed it for the 100th ⛺️ aye, when I was in Knoydart on the CWT, the section between Sourlies and Barrisdale felt proper remote.
Ages since I've been out into Fisherfield Robin, such a beautiful place. Last time out I didn't get past the causeway. It was such a lovely weekend, I decided to pitch up and relax by the loch.. preferring a lazy lochside camp rather than climbing a hill.. Excellent video and thank you for inspiring a revisit... 😎😎
WOW great video this one Robin! Stunning scenery, amazing weather and you captured it so well. Enjoyed the more cinematic shots in there too. Bet that trip was one to remember! Cheers
Just gorgeous. I've been looking forward to walking in these mountains ever since I spotted them from Slioch in 2019. Still haven't made it there. When I do, I'll remember to bring my bike.
@@WalkWithWallace I haven't really planned it yet - if I do the whole lot at once I probably won't take a bike. I might do that just to challenge myself... maybe!
Fantastic Robin, brought back some great memories of Fisherfield trips. Have you done Beinn Dearg Mor/Beag yet? I did those two as an out and back from Sheneval along with Chaisgein Mor years ago.
Cheers Ricky, how you keeping mate? Aye Kev and I did the two Deargs a few years ago. Combined them doing 4 of the big 6 first. Love it in Fisherfield.
Another belter of a trip Robin. 👍 You make it look easy covering the distance on the looong walk in. Cracking sunset & sunrise with great inversion timelapse for your 100th wild camp. ATB Derek
Robin, stunning video and the views from Beinn a' Chaisgein Mòr are a true wilderness experience. My father lives on the River Ewe, so know the area fairly well, got a few MTB videos of the area up on my channel. The 'Causeway' between the Dubh Loch and Fionn has quite a story to it. Built in the 1830's it would be the subject of a legal argument in 1876-77 that went all the way to the House of Lords. Osgood Mackenzie (Inverewe Garden's fame) owned one side of Fionn Loch and claimed that the Dubh Loch was part of Fionn and thus he had rights to drag a boat over the boulder causeway and fish the Dubh Loch. The other protagonist in the argument was Meyrick Bankes who owned the Letterewe & Gruinard Estates who claimed that the Dubh Loch was a seperate piece of water and thus Osgood had no entitlement or right to fish on it. Initially Osgood won the case, but after repeated appeals it progressively went higher to the House of Lords where they decided that Dubh Loch is a separate entity and does in fact flow into Fionn. Osgood never really got over this loss. The original causeway was just some stones placed to allow drovers to cross, it is considerably higher now and a fair old structure. When there is a lot of rain and the rivers are in spate it is not a given it can be useable as the Dubh Loch can impressively overflow the entire causeway making it quite dangerous. There used to be a locked gate in the middle of the causeway with iron spikes on the outside, the remains are still visible to the side in the loch. Who would have thought such an innocuous looking causeway would have such a history to it? Bankes was a particularly unsavoury character who evicted many tenants on his Gruinard Estate forcing them to live on the seashore as he turned their lands over for sheep farming. Osgood Mackenzie despite his Inverewe Garden fame was not much better. Though no evictions occured on his land he treated the locals of Poolewe with utter contempt. The villagers were not allowed to gather rushes for their roofs without his permission, likewise permission was required to own a cow or a dog. My own grandfather had a nasty run in with him over a ferret. How times have changed that we can roam such beautiful places peacefully free from the draconian powers of landowners. Cheers Ewen
Hi Ewen, thanks for taking the time to post the actual history of the causeway. Quite fascinating and I never knew it could flood when the rivers were in spate. Did wonder about the spikes which reminded me of the Churchill barriers in Orkney hence my joke. I also noticed the old “Great Wilderness” is gone, sure it was in the middle of the causeway.
Great video. I visited that location in the early eighties. No drone or decent video available in those days, so this kind of coverage brings back great memories of an area I am now too old to get to. Do it while you can.
Thanks Robert. These areas must have been a bit more special back then with the lack of internet and social media. Certainly plan do this as long as the body allows, but take nothing for granted with niggly injuries etc.
@@WalkWithWallace Thanks for the reply. The footpaths were certainly less distinct. The remotest feeling I got, back in the days, was at Loch Ghiubhsachain ( hope spelling right). It’s great that there are still such remote areas in the UK. Thanks again for your videos.
Stunning scenery in glorious conditions. Looked like decent paths too, for the majority. You may have mentioned this before, but what camera(s) and drone do you use? Also, what would be your thoughts on The Rough Bounds of Knoydart as Wilderness contender? And possibly that whole area between Inchnadamph and Glendhu Bothy? Regards, Wadi.
Cheers Wadi, the paths are excellent. It only became pathless when I branched off for the final pull up to the summit. I was using 4 cameras in this video. GoPro Hero 11 - talking & static shots iPhone 15 Pro Max - scenery DJI Pocket 3 - timelapses and tent talk DJI Mavic Air - drone shots. Knoydart is worthy of a shout. The section on the CWT between Sourlies & Barrisdale is pretty remote and after Inchnadamph probably a bit closer to the road but it is pretty wild in there.
@@WalkWithWallace I actually went up to Assynt after Torridon. Parked up in Inchnadamph and camped on Glas Bheinn. Stunning views all around and pitched my tent so I could sit and have my tea looking at Suilven. THE best few days camping I’ve ever had ❤️🏴
@@WalkWithWallace yes, you get a great view of Quinag and also of Suilven a bit further in the distance. I had a great sunset with blue sky and sunshine and a miles night. Unlike 2 other guys who only camped at around 300mtrs not more than a few mikes away near Ben More and had an horrendous night with the wind and struggling to keep warm. I still can’t believe what a few days I had and was THE best wild camping I’ve ever had. I honestly had the holiday blues when I came away from Scotland But definitely back this winter ❤️🏴
Superb Robinho! I think one of the old Scottish Hills reports said that the approach is like stepping into the wardrobe and then coming out the other end at the point when you can see the hills behind the loch (as in the lion, the witch and the wardrobe). So true. Fab video.
Was a cracking week of weather so it was. We walked out on the Saturday and headed up to Suilven the next day. 100 wildcamps is great for the soul 😉 Definitely is the last wilderness. Great scenery and well filmed 👍
Cheers Pete, must admit I’ve always wanted to get the drone in there but a’Mhaighdean. Traffic had othee ideas, the Kessock Bridge was closed and got delayed so never had the time. Good excuse to go back another time. 😁
Now mornings like that are sacred almost Robin. A great approach in and walk out. I thought you were going to mention Knoydart. There are no roads into that area not that I've been. But what do you reckon - one on the list? Well, good going. That was enjoyable. Mark
Cheers Mark, it was a lush morning, one of the best. Aye Knoydart is definitely worth a shout particularly when you’re away from the village and into the guts of the mountains.
@@WalkWithWallace A pleasure Robin. Good to hear of the lush morning. Yeah, Knoydart has to be there somewhere - it's a place I've wanted to explore - that and the Cairngorms.
@@WyeExplorer two very different areas but both stunning in their own ways. Not everyone likes the Cairngorms because they’re more rolling than pointy peaks like Knoydart but the vastness and grandeur is something else.
Great footage of an amazing place, the drone shots are spectacular or should I say superboss 😂 what’s with 3 hours and 30 min with yer time update and not three and a half hours is it a central belt thing😂
Cheers mate and lol, not sure mate. I wasn’t aware 😂 maybe back in the day, when I used to write trip reports before TH-cam I would put time in that format.
Excellent Robin.😎What a cracking video.This has long been my way I'm for A'Mhaigdean and Ruadh Stac Mor.The scenery with the lochs and especially being able to cross the causeway has always drawn me to go this way.Should have done them this month but my car was fecked for 3 weeks Think it might be next year now.😢 Ur summit camp looked the biz😃👍🏴
Cheers Andy, if you’re not planning on doing all 5 Munros from Shenevall or Kinlochewe then the Poolewe approach is a must. Nightmare about the motor, hope it wasn’t too expensive.
Great trip beautifully filmed. Brought back great memories of ‘Carnmore 74’ when half a dozen of us walked into Carnmore Bothy from Poolewe carrying full bivvying gear and climbing equipment and spent a week climbing on Carnmore Crag behind the bothy. After a few days some of us walked out to Poolewe and back to resupply the fags and whisky. Happy Days.
@@WalkWithWallace Sadly I have never been back but about twenty years ago I did the Fisherfield Six from Shenevall in one push. Deserved my whisky by the time I got back to the bothy. Now I’m 72 and will never see these places again except in wonderful videos like yours.
@@scot1425 the Big Fisherfield 6 from Shenevall is probably my favourite hike. Always a bit sad to see people miss the Corbett as it was reclassified from Munro status a few years ago.
"Wilderness" is a strange one these days, because as soon as anyone mentions it, half the known universe heads out that way - and it's wilderness no more! Fisherfield is at least difficult to access other than on foot mind you, so that can only help. I don't blame you at all for enoying that lovely mountain-top sunrise a while - thanks again for sharing it with us!
Awesome video fantastic views and weather completely amazing must be one of the remotest Corbetts (although I do think but maybe wrong that Carn Ban near Seana Bhraigh is the most remote) you certainly are talented real good production brilliant video throughly enjoyed watching it as usual. ATB take care Andy K
Thank you Andy, you’re a true gent and for the coffees too mate. 😊 I hadn’t thought about Carn Ban, did that from the north a few years ago. Ben Aden must be within a shout too 🤔
@@WalkWithWallace No problem happy to support you and thanks for making the vlogs yes I did Ben Aden long walk along the loch it’s a cracking mountain I will have to do Carn Ban cheers mate
Evening Robin, stunning mate……looks pretty remote if you ask me! Haha The remoteness of the Fisherfields sounds like my sort of place mate. No one around for miles……total heaven! 🤣 I’m hoping to get out for a camp on Great Gable this Friday night, weather permitting! 🤞 All the best mate 😀⛰🥾🏕️🏴🏴
I thought Knoydart was supposed to be Scotland's last wilderness? [Don't know how many other wildernesses have buildings with solar arrays in them] Anyhoo, cracking trip, Robin - we did this a couple of years ago. Awesome videography, BTW. Thanks for uploading. 🏴🏔👍
Cheers mate, yeah Knoydart is often regarded as the last wilderness being cut off from the rest of mainland but it has a village, pub and cars with a regular ferry service from Mallaig. Fisherfield is hard to beat imho.
Fabulous views, and so remote. Love it. Did you know your sunglasses look like they are heart shaped with the reflection of your hat? Or are you taking on Kevs habit of wearing women's sunglasses 🤔😊
Great video. I wonder if it is something to do with the mountain layout that you get such good inversions. I had the same over Lochan Fade when I camped on A M'Haighdean
Cheers mate, quite possibly could be the lie of the land and the lochs too perhaps. One of my friends was stuck in that cloud lower down on Slioch, that’s unlucky!
Thanks Dave, big fan of the Flex Capacitor. Comfortable and carries a load nicely. PS. Big thank you for the coffees too mate, just seen the email pop up. ☕️
Of course Scotland has wilderness. I think people forget how small Scotland is compared to other countries. Scale up the distances and it more than holds it own.
I tend to agree mate, but I know it can be subjective. Wilderness can or should be somewhere with minimum human inpact on the land. Regardless, Fisherfield is fantastic and unbeatable!
Unfortunately there isn’t anywhere left that has got no impact from humans, if there was the place would be full of trees and wild animals. Still a great video though, 👍
@@stewartgregson8479 cheers Stewart. At least we’ve still got some nice remote parts. I’m sure you’d struggle to find areas like this in Central Europe, even the Alps have a lot of infrastructure.
another probablt the best mountain approach in the world!! least the Carldberh ads were watchable, unlike others. gotta watch them German baggers, some will put a sunbed on the Munro!!, allegidly! theres parts of Northumberland that are pretty remote, but not as much as in Northern Scotland.
i googles to double check, all but Northumberland in the top 10 were the North and Isles of Scotland. its a massive county, the most remote in Northumberland probably near the border of Cumbria. there aint much for miles.
i found the place too, about 7.5km from Keswick. thatll be a great hike. some towns but nothing much north of Newcastle till Edinburgh too, the coast route is great.
Actually love the east coast from Edinburgh all the way down past Berwick into England. Lots of fond memories from my childhood. Nothing remote in the Howgills?

Brought back great memories of ‘Carnmore 74’ when half a dozen of us walked into Carnmore Bothy from Poolewe carrying full bivvying gear and climbing equipment and spent a week climbing on Carnmore Crag behind the bothy. After a few days some of us walked out to Poolewe and back to resupply the fags and whisky. Happy Days.
Cheers mate. Great memories there and I bet the bothy has hardly changed in 50 years?
@@WalkWithWallace Sadly I have never been back but about twenty years ago I did the Fisherfield Six from Shenevall in one push. Deserved my whisky by the time I got back to the bothy. Now I’m 72 and will never see these places again except in wonderful videos like yours.
@@scot1425 the Big Fisherfield 6 from Shenevall is probably my favourite hike. Always a bit sad to see people miss the Corbett as it was reclassified from Munro status a few years ago.
"Wilderness" is a strange one these days, because as soon as anyone mentions it, half the known universe heads out that way - and it's wilderness no more! Fisherfield is at least difficult to access other than on foot mind you, so that can only help. I don't blame you at all for enoying that lovely mountain-top sunrise a while - thanks again for sharing it with us!
Cheers Paul. Aye, there’s definitely a romantic notion for Scottish Wilderness. Anything easy to reach isn’t wilderness, but maybe remote.
Class!
😎 👍🏻
Cracking video Robin what a stunning place mate atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Thanks Jimmy. 😎 👍🏻
Awesome video fantastic views and weather completely amazing must be one of the remotest Corbetts (although I do think but maybe wrong that Carn Ban near Seana Bhraigh is the most remote) you certainly are talented real good production brilliant video throughly enjoyed watching it as usual. ATB take care Andy K
Thank you Andy, you’re a true gent and for the coffees too mate. 😊
I hadn’t thought about Carn Ban, did that from the north a few years ago. Ben Aden must be within a shout too 🤔
@@WalkWithWallace No problem happy to support you and thanks for making the vlogs yes I did Ben Aden long walk along the loch it’s a cracking mountain I will have to do Carn Ban cheers mate
@@andrewkingdom Looking forward to Aden, and enjoy Carn Ban. Magoo’s bothy makes a nice base.
Brilliant all round !!!
Cheers Larry. 👍🏻
Evening Robin, stunning mate……looks pretty remote if you ask me! Haha
The remoteness of the Fisherfields sounds like my sort of place mate. No one around for miles……total heaven! 🤣
I’m hoping to get out for a camp on Great Gable this Friday night, weather permitting! 🤞
All the best mate 😀⛰🥾🏕️🏴🏴
Cheers Dave and Fisherfield is definitely up your street. Enjoy Great Gable, haven’t done that one.
I thought Knoydart was supposed to be Scotland's last wilderness? [Don't know how many other wildernesses have buildings with solar arrays in them] Anyhoo, cracking trip, Robin - we did this a couple of years ago. Awesome videography, BTW. Thanks for uploading. 🏴🏔👍
Cheers mate, yeah Knoydart is often regarded as the last wilderness being cut off from the rest of mainland but it has a village, pub and cars with a regular ferry service from Mallaig. Fisherfield is hard to beat imho.
Jolly nice sir
Jolly nice indeed
Thank you. 😎
Fabulous views, and so remote. Love it. Did you know your sunglasses look like they are heart shaped with the reflection of your hat? Or are you taking on Kevs habit of wearing women's sunglasses 🤔😊
Haha, I can assure you they are not wimmin’s specs. Going to watch back now to see what you mean. 😎 😂
@@WalkWithWallace if you say so..😉🤣
@@fionashannon4132 🤭 🫳🏻
Great video. I wonder if it is something to do with the mountain layout that you get such good inversions. I had the same over Lochan Fade when I camped on A M'Haighdean
Cheers mate, quite possibly could be the lie of the land and the lochs too perhaps. One of my friends was stuck in that cloud lower down on Slioch, that’s unlucky!
Soothing on the spirit that. How do you like the flex capacitor?
Thanks Dave, big fan of the Flex Capacitor. Comfortable and carries a load nicely. PS. Big thank you for the coffees too mate, just seen the email pop up. ☕️
@@WalkWithWallace no worries. I tried Andrew Park's FC on, whilst on the TMB. Felt like nothing on my back.
@@Fellmandave1 fancy getting one? There’s obviously lighter packs out there. But if its comfy, that’s what matters most.
Wow what an amazing video love view mate il ad this one to my bucket list 👍👌⛺️atb bryan
Cheers Bryan, worth the effort to get there mate.
Beautiful countryside, but where was the forest?
Thank you and yes there is sadly a lack of trees in Scotland.
T'riffic. 👍🏼
Cheers mucker 😎 👍🏻
Of course Scotland has wilderness. I think people forget how small Scotland is compared to other countries. Scale up the distances and it more than holds it own.
I tend to agree mate, but I know it can be subjective. Wilderness can or should be somewhere with minimum human inpact on the land. Regardless, Fisherfield is fantastic and unbeatable!
Unfortunately there isn’t anywhere left that has got no impact from humans, if there was the place would be full of trees and wild animals. Still a great video though, 👍
@@stewartgregson8479 cheers Stewart. At least we’ve still got some nice remote parts. I’m sure you’d struggle to find areas like this in Central Europe, even the Alps have a lot of infrastructure.
Superbos.
😎 👌🏻
another probablt the best mountain approach in the world!! least the Carldberh ads were watchable, unlike others. gotta watch them German baggers, some will put a sunbed on the Munro!!, allegidly!
theres parts of Northumberland that are pretty remote, but not as much as in Northern Scotland.
Cheers Peter, I was actually thinking about the most remote spot in England, didn’t think of Northumberland. What about The Pennines?
i googles to double check, all but Northumberland in the top 10 were the North and Isles of Scotland. its a massive county, the most remote in Northumberland probably near the border of Cumbria. there aint much for miles.
Aye, it’s mamba land in (miles and miles of bugger all). 😄
i found the place too, about 7.5km from Keswick. thatll be a great hike. some towns but nothing much north of Newcastle till Edinburgh too, the coast route is great.
Actually love the east coast from Edinburgh all the way down past Berwick into England. Lots of fond memories from my childhood. Nothing remote in the Howgills?
Remote yes, wilderness no. Add part,s of Assynt to yer remote list, mind the NC500 debacle has nearly ruined a once quiet area.
Yeah, not a fan of the NC500 to be honest. At least they don’t travel far from their car or vans.
