Braebag and the Bones Caves

This walk offers much variety and makes for a moderately challenging and exciting day out for those looking for a bit of adventure.

We begin by taking the path towards the dramatic bone caves which sit high up in an impressive limestone valley. There are 4 main caves where several species of animal bones were discovered over a century ago, including lynx, wild cat, arctic fox and polar bear!

After exploring the caves we continue our walk over varied terrain eventually gaining steep ground onto the summit top of Breabeg, which opens up to wonderful views of the mountains of Conival and Ben more Assynt whilst Canisp and Suilven can be seen in the other direction.

Our descent once again allows us lovely views of the mountains and valleys before we eventually rejoin the path back to our start point.

A super day out!
