Not on your tourers Tony. The bit round the back would be too tough for me. Lots of bog pushing, a river crossing and a hefty climb up to the Bealach.
I meant to say.. consider the Hope - Altnaharra - Tongue loop. It's all road but completely worthwhile.

Direct route from Lone to Gobernuisgach lodge is a much easier prospect
Re: Bealach Horn loop?
I wouldn't Ton. Much better stuff up there. There'd be a high proportion of pushing and the main one is a beast.
Re: Bealach Horn loop?
thanks gents. plans altered now. mrs has reminded me that this is gonna be a leisurely trip and she aint pushing up no mountains.........
