Surrounded by higher and more imposing hills, An Sithean is a forgotten Corbett peak hiding in a remote area where the glens of Strathconnon, Strathfarrar and Gleann Uig meet.

The stalkers paths on An Sithean help access this Corbett, though many sections of these paths are now overgrown and quite indistinct. Being situated equi-distanced from the roadside at Achnaschellach, Strathconon and Monar Dam, there are a few route options to bag this lonely Corbett !

Routes up An Sithean

---

Bac an Eich and An Sithean
	Bac an Eich and An Sithean are grass covered Corbetts tucked away in a remote area between Loch Monar and Strathconon. Old stalkers paths help access, though higher up, navigation can be challenging on the pathless wide summit plateaux. Peaks : 2 Corbetts Ascent : 1200m (3940ft) Distance : 31km (19m) Time : 9:45hr

Maoile Lunndaidh from Strathfarrar
	A lovely walk along fine paths above the shores of Loch Monar leads to the southern base of Maoile Lunndaidh from where an old stalkers path travels uphill into Toll a' Choin below the summit crest. A detour to An Sithean doesn't add much distance, just a tad over 300m of ascent. Peaks : 1 Munro, option of 1 Corbett Ascent : 1350m (4430ft) Distance : 25km (16m) Time : 8:15hr
