Morven Summit

Highlight • Viewpoint

Morven Summit

Recommended by 14 hikers

On the very Eastern fringes of the Cairngorms, Morven rises to a fine high perch, totally dominating the farmsteads and woodland of Cromar to the east. Hikes to Morven’s summit open up a magnificent vista to the south and west, where most of Britain’s highest ground rises in shallow waves to the horizon.

This Morven is not to be confused with the distinctive conical mountain in Caithness of the same name.

This Highlight is in a protected area

Please check local regulations for: Cairngorms National Park

    There are a couple of good routes to the summit of Morven, either from the east or south. Parking to the South at Tulloch church is the best, and the trail to the hill is good, bog free, and peaceful
