Comentarios de pilotos
Beinn na Feusaige is located in Glen Carron, a 30km long valley running almost from Achnasheen out to the west coast village of Lochcarron. In its upper parts, towards Achnasheen, the valley is wide and the hills on its north side side are rounded with summits of 500-660m. Travelling west along the valley, around halfway along, it narrows with the lower valley sides covered by forestry plantation, before opening up again beyond Achnashellach Station. The north side of Glen Carron is best flown in a light southerly wind. Whilst a flight across the Coulin Forest towards Loch Maree and the mountains of Torridon is a good objective for any pilot flying here, Beinn na Feusaige also has an easterly aspect from which it is possible to launch in a SE – ESE and drop back along the valley to the nose of Coille Bhreac. If taking this route do beware of being pinned too far along the main glen where it narrows and the landing options become more limited.
