This requires a big push or carry up to gain the high ridge. It needs to be ridden conservatively and respectfully but the views over the Cairngorm massif and the Spey Valley makes up for the nadgery nature of the riding.

Fantastic views but lots of pushing both up and down. Not enjoyable riding over very rocky ascents and descents with boggy wet areas thrown in for good measure.
