    Hiking

    Arrival at Càrn Dearg Meadhonach is a relief if you've slogged your way up from the North Face Path, as it means it’s only a short way to Càrn Mòr Dearg striking pyramid and its famous arête. The views from this subsidiary summit are wonderful, particularly across to the muscular bulk of the Ben's North Face.

    Càrn Dearg Meadhonach's east ridge is a superb alternative way to access its summit. A rough grade one scramble in summer, it's a fine grade two winter route.

    From here the view to Ben Nevis is stunning, and the ridge walk along from hear to Carn Mor Dearg is fantastic.

    Hiking

    This summit is a Munro Top and reaching it is a relief after the slog up from the CIC hut. It is an easy ridge continuing on to Càrn Mòr Dearg.
