Mountain Description
Meall Greigh is normally considered part of the Ben Lawers ridge, although it is separated from Meall Garbh by a broad bealach linking Coire nan Cat to Coire nam Buidheag. The ascent of Meall Greigh along with Meall Garbh is normally from the Lawers Burn to this bealach on easy slopes. This is a broad mountain with easy to moderate slopes in all directions. Whilst there are some crags to the S of the summit (Sron Mhor) the terrain is generally grass with some rock outcrops.
