About An Socach
An Socach is one of three Munros sharing this name, and it is nestled in the remote and rugged terrain above the upper reaches of Loch Mullardoch. This particular Munro is known for its seclusion and the challenging nature of its approach. To reach An Socach, one must navigate a very rough path that runs along the loch. There are a couple of routes to consider: you can approach from the north via Glen Strathfarrar, which offers a scenic yet demanding journey, or you can embark on a lengthy trek from Killilan in Kintail. Both routes promise an adventurous experience through some of Scotland's wildest landscapes.
