The Peak of the Fingalean Warriors (no less), Sgorr nam Fiannaidh forms one end of the fearsome Aonach Eagach ridge, on the north side of Glencoe. We weren't up for attempting the ridge today, but after dropping our elder son off by the beehive cairn (he was doing Buchaille Etive Baeg), we had a great walk up Fiannaidh.
Starting from the path up to the Pap of Glencoe, from the road past the Clachaig Inn, we forked right away from the Pap and up to the Munro. The path was slippery, scree-ridden and in places a river - yet it took us all the way to one of the most magnificent viewpoints I have ever stood on.
Glencoe in the sunshine- just marvellous!
