Day 1

Cairngorms
Starting at the Cas car park in the Cairngorms we have an advantage of being at 650mtrs; we head along the track to the summit of Ben Macdui, the 2nd highest in the UK, before heading down towards the Lairig Ghru at Corrour bothy where we will camp for the night.

Day 2

Cairngorms
Leaving the camping equipment at the camp, we head up onto The Devils Point; we then hand rail the corries taking in the peaks of Cairntoul, Sgor an Lochain Uaine and Braeriach. A cracking day taking in the next three highest peaks in the UK. A great day all round, back to camp for some well-earned rest and food.

Day 3

Cairngorms
Leaving Corrour bothy today we head along towards Gleann Laoigh Bheag, we head up north and eventually onto the Munro of Derry Cairngorm; we then head down towards the largest expanse of water above 900mtrs in the UK, Loch Etchachan, our camp for tonight with the chance for a quick dip if you fancy!

Day 4

Cairngorms
Waking at our camp, we get packed up before head down towards the shelter stone where we can have a little explore of where some people spend the night under the 'shelter stone'. We then continue down to the majestic Loch Avon before heading up Corie Raibeirt and up onto the summit of Cairngorm, topping off the round of taking in the five next highest peaks in the UK! Down to the cafe for coffee and cake!
