Mountain Description
|
|
|
Carn Dearg sits on the edge of the Monadhliath Plateau. It has a single ridge SSE of the summit, which is narrow steep sided and craggy and terminates in Carn Macoul, (805) overlooking Gleann Lochain. NW of the summit a broad col connects to Carn Ban (942m) loacted on the edge of the plateau. The normal ascent is from the top of Gleann Ballach, ascending N of the crags and S of Carn Ban to attain the col, or over the high Monadhliath plateau from Carn Sgulain in the NE.

David Rennie wrote on April 24, 2006:
|
Completed the route A'Chailleach, Carn Sgulain and Carn Dearg in a anti clockwise direction, this was a tough route due to the distance (25km) and the amount of snow on the eastern slopes in late April. We took a different route from Carn Dearg desending from the notch between Carn Macoul and the southern 923 top of Carn Dearg, this was boggy with a very faint path but it will remove the need to retrace your steps to Carn Ban
