Stac Pollaidh
Height: 2009 feet.
Stac Pollaidh is a mountain located north of Ullapool, rising up immediately to the north of the single track road from the A835 to Achiltibuie. The peak displays a rocky crest of Torridonian sandstone with many pinnacles and steep gullies.
Stac Pollaidh means "peak of the peat moss" and its name is often anglicised to Stack Polly.
Due to its relatively low height, fine views and ease of access from a road it has become a very popular peak to climb. Consequently it has suffered from a great deal of erosion.
