Guisachan
Farm, Tomich is set amidst the scenic splendour of the Glen Affric NNR, often described
as the most beautiful glen in Scotland, and home to one of the few remnants
of the ancient Caledonian Pine Forest which once covered much of Scotland.
The area is a paradise for walkers.
Forest trails provide the perfect environment for young and old to walk or cycle, and there is an abundance of wildlife to reward the observant visitor. Forest Enterprise have car parks and marked woodland trails in locations round Loch Beinn a' Mheadhoin, Dog Falls, Badger Falls and Plodda Falls are all spectacular and there are walks of varying lengths to suit all abilities. All can be reached on foot from your accommodation walking through the woods or you can take the car to a central location and walk from there.
The surrounding mountains boast many Munros and Corbetts to challenge the
experienced hillwalker, but bear in mind that there may be some restrictions
on certain locations during the stalking season.
Walks from the farm include gentle strolls through the woods longer climbs
up on the Guisachan hills to the monument and hill lochs, or right through
to the west coast via Glen Affric and Kintail. These walks can all be undertaken
on paths or hill tracks where you will not meet any vehicles and the only
people you will see will be other walkers.
