Mountain Description
|
|
|
Beinn a' Bhuird has an elongated plateau orientated N to S with two tops of similar altitude 2.7km apart. The N top is the summit. From Derry Cairngorm in the W the massive bulk of Beinn a' Bhuird dominates the skyline and its slopes appear moderate (in fact a vehicle track leads to the summit plateau). This view, however hides the true nature of Beinn a' Bhuird, as to the E of the summit plateau are the cliffs and crags of great corries.

Beinn a' Bhuird
|
A long route on moderately steep slopes leading to a high level plateau walk. There are deep corries to the west of the summit plateau, therefore, careful navigation required particularly in poor visibility.

Invercauld estate now provided car park and toilets at Keiloch - costs £2 and proceeds spent on upkeep - evidence of work around Quoich water crossing - no bridge so prepare for wet feet - 1hr cycle from Keiloch to Slugain ruin on good track. superb ground conditions for walking in this area - easy to add Ben Avon tor to this trip.

Instead of leaving bikes at the Gleann an t-Slugain ruin, why not take them as far as gr113989. A well constructed path with drainage ditches will take you there with ease! The only rough section is past the ruin for 100m or so.

Bike up Glen Quoich from the Mar lodge until the path turns to single track. Leave the bike here and hike to the top. You can bag this in 6 hours or less.
