About Tolmount

Tolmount presents a striking, cone-shaped silhouette when viewed from the serene shores of Loch Callater. In contrast, from other perspectives, it appears as a twin to its nearby companion, Tom Buidhe. Both peaks are characterized by their gently rounded, dome-like forms, rising modestly from the expansive and rugged Mounth plateau. This area offers a unique blend of scenic beauty and tranquil isolation, making it a rewarding destination for dedicated munro baggers.
