Mountain Description
|
|
|
Carn na Fhreiceadain is a broad rise on the SE margin of the Monadhliath Plateau, it is joined to its nearest neighbour to the E, Beinn Bhreac (843m), via a high col. Tracks from Pitmain Lodge ascend the S ridges of both these hills making for an easy route. But to the N lies feature poor moorland, so navigate with care.

An easy ascent from Kingussie. Note that presently (January 2007) three of the five bridges across the Allt Mhor have been washed out. If using the car park at the golf course there's an intact bridge 100 metres downstream; there's also a free car park in the village. Good spacious views from the flat summit, and a sense of space. The view includes the windfarm at Tomatin. I must say that having the entire route on landrover track detracted from it a bit, though it would make the hill a suitable outing on a claggy day.

Ascent could not be easier on bulldozed tracks, and a theres a nice contrast between the friendly views southwards to the Cairngorms and Spey Valley and the wild and barren expanses of the remote Monadhliath to the north. A surprisingly enjoyable day-out for such a featureless and shapeless hill.
