Description
This is the north-eastern mountain of the Fisherfield Forest, situated 3 kilometres north of Sgurr Ban. It is very prominently seen in the approach from Corrie Hallie to Strath na Sealga or Shenavall across the moors east of An Teallach. To the north Beinn a' Chlaidheimh drops steeply to Strath na Sealga in a series of discontinuous sandstone cliffs, and to the south it is linked to Sgurr Ban by a long broad ridge.The shortest approach to Beinn a' Chlaidheimh is from the A832 road at Corrie Hallie. From there follow the track which climbs southwards and crosses lochan-studded moorland before dropping to Strath na Sealga. Leave the track at the foot of its steep descent, cross the Abhainn Loch an Nid and climb south-west up gradually steepening slopes to reach the summit of Beinn a' Chlaidheimh.
