Am Faochagach, Mountain summit in Highland, Scotland.
Am Faochagach rises to 953 meters above sea level, featuring a prominent cairn at its peak and extensive views across the Northwest Highlands.
The mountain received its classification as a Munro in 1891 when Sir Hugh Munro established the list of Scottish mountains exceeding 3000 feet.
Scottish mountaineers regard Am Faochagach as part of the Munro collection, making it a destination for those pursuing the completion of all peaks.
The hiking trail extends 13.8 kilometers with 683 meters of ascent, requiring approximately 4 hours and 37 minutes to complete the round trip.
The mountain presents a specific challenge due to its surrounding moorland and bogs, which hikers must navigate before reaching the simpler upper slopes.
