   North West Highlands     -     Letterewe

The North West Highlands are considered by many to be one of the last wilderness regions of Europe. The area can be reached relatively quickly from the conurbations in the central belt, but the real adventure of visiting this vast area is to penetrate into the remote mountain areas accessible only by foot. In many cases this requires a short holiday.

Along with the neighbouring district of Fisherfield, Letterewe is the most remote area of Scotland, and boasts the country's most inaccessible group of Munros. There is a surprising amount of excellent rock climbing on these mountains, much of it comparable with any of the classic routes in Glencoe or Ben Nevis, although generally of an exploratory nature. Any visit to Letterewe is a major undertaking requiring some careful planning as the estates do not provide any bridges over the many rivers and burns that flow through the interior, and neither are any of the bothies maintained.
