Torridon is a spectacular region in the Northwest Highlands, famed for its dramatic and rugged scenery that attracts walkers, climbers, and wild campers alike. The area is home to some of Scotland’s most impressive mountains and glens, including the towering Liathach, the ancient Beinn Eighe, and the stunning Glen Torridon. Its wild, remote landscapes offer a perfect backdrop for adventurous wild camping, but visitors should be prepared for often wet and very windy conditions.
Wild camping is allowed throughout Torridon, giving you the freedom to choose your own spot. Ideal locations tend to be at some height to capture sweeping views, near freshwater sources like burns or lochs, and a few miles’ walk from roads to ensure solitude and a true wilderness experience. However, the weather can be volatile, so preparation is essential.
