Parked by the Harris walkway for an 0730 start on a bright morning. A good day for a coronation.. Clisham Horseshoe - Tomnabhal - An Cliseam - An t-Isean - Mulla bho Dheas - Mulla bho Thuath - Mullach an Langa - Mo Bhiogadail - Mo Bhiogadail East Top. Didn't see another human until around 1200 when the weather changed (and not for the better!) and the 3 people I met were desperate for the sun to return. A straight line from Tomnabhal to An Cliseam provided a number of challenges particularly the final 100 metres! A good day away from the tv.Buck06/05/2023
Repeat visit. On route to Mulla bho Thuath.PGCE02/04/2023
Starting and finishing at the millennium woodland carpark next to Scaladale Outdoor Centre we did an anticlockwise traverse of the classic Cliseam horseshoe, adding the Mo Bhiogadail sisters and Tomnabhal as these were the only summits below the cloud base! 7hrs total.summitter08/09/2022
The cairn on An Clisham marks the route down to the beallach. Cloud made route finding difficult. Solo.Dangerous Dave02/09/2022

With friends on a day trip from Skye. We took the 09:40 ferry from Uig to Tarbert. Walked on the road towards Kyles Scalpay. Near Urgha Beag took the footpath (quite a well made track) going north beside Laxadale Loch. At the head of the glen we went NW across open moor to reach the A859 road. Then to the west of Sron Càrsacleit and to the summit of Clisham. Followed the ridge over a minor top to Mulla-fo-dheas and descended southwards. Swam in a small lochan and had ice cream at Ardhasaig. We took the 20:30 ferry back to Uig. Very good weather.pwbellarby19/08/1995
