Rising to 3,419 feet (1,042 m), this is the crowning high point of a group of four Munros above Glen Lyon, which are often referred to as the Càrn Mairg hills. It's a stupendous viewpoint for the Lawers Group on a clear day.

Càrn Mairg's quartzite summit is flanked by two subsidiaries, the long plateau of Meall a Bhàrr to the west and Meall Liath to the east. The most common approach to the summit is as part of a long loop taking in all four Munros, starting from Invervar.

Carn Mairg is a 1,042m Munro mountain in the Scottish Highlands. It's part of a wonderful circular route of four Munros from Glen Lyon. Carn Mairg has a boulder strewn summit.

Reaching this summit give some surprisingly vast and panoramic views of the surrounding hills. This is the closest point on the Glen Lyon 4 Munros to Schiehallion, a very obvious cone shape to the north east.
