The iconic Suilven

We’ve tried to climb Suilven 3 times. One time we were scuppered by a dog’s sore paws and another by 90mph winds, but this time everything went to plan… on our wedding anniversary too!

There’s a spot on the Rubha Stoer where you can see five of the Assynt peaks in a row on the horizon; Suilven, Canisp, Stac Pollaidh, Cùl Mòr and Cùl Beag. And, if you’re into that kind of thing, they look pretty cool. Even better if you’ve climbed them all… 3 down, 2 to go.
