Glen Shee to Mount Keen

This route covers the 2 munros Carn an t-Sagairt More & Carn a'Choire Bhoidheach which are to the east of Lochnagar on the Balmoral Estate. Starting from Auchallater Farm (A93 Road Glen Clunie) follow the private road up into Glen Callater then once at the lodge take the path uphill (south-east). Traverse the munros once on the high mountain plateau & return back down Glen Callater.

Probably the most noticeable point of the route is the dramatic 1093m point called The Stuic (meaning Projecting Hill) which is a rocky buttress & minor summit to the north of Carn a'Coire Boidheach.

This is a route taking in the munro Lochnagar which is perhaps the finest mountain in the eastern highlands. It's the highest munro of the Mounth plateau and it's finest feature are the spectacular northern corries which are best viewed from Meikle Pap with a little detour from the route below.
The route is located entirely in the Balmoral Estate the summer home of the Royal Family. At the foot of Lochnagar lies Loch Muick, where Queen Victoria had a 'secret' cottage.

A fairly easy route over 2 munros on the eastern part of the extensive White Mounth plateau. Starting from the car park follow a good track along the northern side of Loch Muick then up a Glen to Dubh Lochan. Continuing up onto high level plateau to climb the 2 munros & top heading down on a high level track that winds back down to Spittal of Glenmuick.

An easy route taking inMount Keen which is the most easterly of the munros and a domed shaped solitary hill. This is the shortest and commonest route to it from Glen Esk and one saved if an easy day on the hills is required.

This route takes in the 2 munros Mayar & Driesh to the south of Glendoll Forest which has beautiful high corries and valleys notably Corrie Fee. Corrie Fee is part of the Corrie Fee Nature Reserve and is where you'll find many rare subarctic plants. The munros are a steep climb up Corrie Fee past some waterfalls.

The closeness of Mayar & Driesh to the city of Dundee makes them popular munros with locals; in many ways making them the Dundonian equivalent to Ben Lomond near Glasgow.
