Beinn Alligin - Tom na Gruagaich Terrain Block
Tom na Gruagaich is the southern Munro of Beinn Alligin, an immense fortress of red sandstone towers. The ascent via the Horns of Alligin involves a classic scramble over three distinct pinnacles. The summit is a fantastic viewpoint for the Upper Loch Torridon and the Shieldaig forest. It catches the late afternoon sun, glowing a deep, fiery red that defines the Torridon aesthetic.
