Costa Del Torridon

6th March 2024

It was another glorious day in Torridon with the temperature reaching 12 degrees Celsius in the village during the afternoon. Many people were sat out in the sun enjoying the views after a beautiful day in the hills. On the hill it felt pleasant in the sun when there was little wind. The winds were variable throughout the day and it felt chilly when the wind picked up, particularly in the shade.

There is little snow remaining in the Torridon area and the photos below give a good overview of where the old snow remnants are. Yesterday’s blog photos certainly looked more wintry, showing the Northern aspects of some of the same hills.

More snow remains across in The Fannichs on the Eastern side of the Torridon forecasting area, however when viewed from a distance this looked like it had depleted over the last 24 hours.
