Ruadh-stac Beag

About Ruadh-stac Beag

Ruadh-stac Beag lies in the Torridon Hills of Wester Ross, an outlier of the Munro Beinn Eighe but a substantial mountain in its own right at 896 m. Rocky crags and steep slopes surround it on every side; ascents are generally made from the south.

Kinlochewe is the nearest village. The hill is a Corbett, Marilyn, HuMP and Simm.
