    Creag Leacach is a 987m Munro mountain in the Scottish Highlands. The pass that leads up to the Glenshee Ski Centre (A93) is perfectly placed to allow a high start point for this Munro. Unusually, the summit cairn of this Munro is along a wall that runs up and over the rocky summit.

      Descent was harder than going up, it can be very slippery and it’s very steep. it may be wise to reach the top and then turn back on yourself.

        No ski scarring so I actually think this is an under rated Glenshee munro.
