Carn an Righ

Carn an Righ from the northwest approach from Fealar Lodge. Rough heathery ground and fording of the stream are obstacles before the short-lived ascent to the summit.

Mountain Description
|
|
|
Carn an Righ is a compact mountain, with a conical top, at the junction of three short ridges W (to Stac na h-Iolair), NE and SE . The S slopes are stony and steep as are the slopes to the N of the NE ridge where there are also some crags. Ascent is normally via the more gentle slopes to the E of the S ridge.

Excellent, remote viewpoint.
I thoroughly recommend the traverse from Dalmunzie, over Creag Bhreac south ridge to Glas Tulaichean, then on to Carn an Righ.

Highly recommend climbing this mountain, underrated in its remoteness, from Blair Atholl. The 12 mile cycle along Glen Tilt is a real joy with surprisingly little ascent and nothing very steep, with many good waterfalls to see on the way. Where the glen narrows and a track splits off to the north the bike was left and straightforward paths were followed over to Fealar Lodge, where another clear path cuts over the hillside making a beeline for Carn an Righ. Eventually one has to cut off across rougher pathless terrain but the ascent is shortlived. The route is reversed - enjoy the ride home!
