Glas Tulaichean and Carn an Righ
Starting up Glen Lochsie |
About 14 miles and two munros, all of a Winter's day. No wonder
I am feeling somewhat sore-legged!
Glad we paid the £2 for parking at the hotel and cut out the final mile and a half each way. |
Looking back to Spittal of Glenshee |
Following the dismantled railway up the glen |
Then onto the highway up the hills - very icy! |
The final plateau before the summit on the right. |
The long and winding road, to the top. |
More clothes, as the cloud clears the top. |

Summit of Glas Tulaichean, more clothes. |
Carn an Righ from Glas Tulaichean. |
Lunch near the top of Gleann Mor, before the next up |
Been up there. |
And going up there next, Carn an Righ. |
View up the glen, that path is the way out, then turn right at the end and drop down into Gleann Taitneach for the long walk home. |
At the top of Carn an Righ - only another seven miles to go. |
Back along the Gleann Mor, aiming to get as far down Gleann Taitneach as possible before dark. |
The alternative route would be back over the shoulder of Glas Tulaichean, on the left. As this was still about the same distance we opted to go round. |

All down hill from here,thank goodness. |
We were not alone. |
