Mountain Description
Geal Charn is the highest of four tops in a square formation. The other three, Carn Dubh (604m), Beinn Chraoibh (616m) and Beinn Mheadhoin (561m) are more similar in height and form a boggy plateau from which the conical summit of Geal Charn rises. A path from Achnasaul leads to the SE of Geal Charn and is the most obvious ascent route. Due to the proximity of Meall na h-Eilde (Corbett), it is normally climbed with Geal Charn via Meall Coire nan Saobhaidh (826m).
