Hiking
The Black Carls, or properly Bodaich Dubh, are a series of quartzite pinnacles that lead up to the wedge-shaped summit of Sgurr nan Fhir Duibhe. The airy traverse is an enjoyable grade one scramble. Beware when wet, as the greased rock can be very slippery.

This is an airy grade one scrambling route along the ridge. Rather exposed in some places, it makes a really goods approach to Beinn Eighe.

Hiking
A great tour with a few small climbs, but they're easily manageable. Surefootedness is required. Then there's a long descent to the campsite.
