Often referred to as the Central Highlands, this area covers the mountains between Loch Treig, Loch Ericht and Loch Laggan. Access is commonly from the A86 or the Corrour Halt stop on the West Highland Railway. An impressive fourteen Munros are scattered across this area (four of which are over 1100m), and included in the mountains list are all of the peaks above 600m. Ben Alder is often thought of as one of the more remote mountains in Scotland and its vast high plateau sits in contrast to the ridge created by Beinn Bheoil. Peaks to the east of Loch Ericht are listed in the East Highlands region.
Walked up Stob Coire Sgriodain from Fersit via north spur. Some wintery showers, some patches of snow encountered. Low visibility at times, driving hail on descent form Chno Dearg. Fun day on the hills (when the weather allowed it). Returned to Fersit.
