Description

CCATSt from Ski Centre and head into Coire an t-Sneachda head along the ridge to Cairn Lochan (1215). Then follow the escarpment to Cairn Gorm (1245) and head down the ski tow back to the start.

Area : The Cairngorms

The Cairngorms are ‘a little piece of the arctic in Scotland’ according to the SMC Munros Guide and the area contains many of the tallest peaks in the East Highlands. Ben Macdui (1309m), Cairn Gorm (1244m) and Braeriach (1296) are probably three of the better known and the whole area is full of steep corries and high plateaux. Access to the mountains is typically from Aviemore or Braemar.
