Camping on Mull gives you a proper island feel, with sea lochs, white beaches and big skies. The main attraction is Ben More, the island’s only Munro and the only one outside Skye that sits on an island. It’s a satisfying day on its own, with a steep climb, a scenic ridge and a view that sweeps over most of Mull. The usual start is Dhiseig on the east side, though some people go from the south via Maol nan Damh, which is pathless and boggy. It’s a serious hill, so allow a full day and bring navigation skills, particularly if the cloud comes in.
If you’d like a lighter day, Mull has plenty of other things to do. You could try a coastal walk to the Carsaig Arches, a trip across to Iona, or a boat out to Staffa and the puffins, and there’s a good chance of seeing sea eagles and otters. Dùn da Ghaoithe near Craignure is a good alternative hill.
