In Assynt, Breabag is long hill, its boulder and stone-covered crests extending 5km north towards Conival and Ben More Assynt.
A fairly straightforward route to Breagbag's summit begins from south of Inchnadamph passes close to the 'bone caves' (see Nature Scot), which are worthy of a detour. The route can be extended northwards along Breagbag's vast plateaux towards Conival.
