This is a glorious trail that leads from Glenmore Visitor Centre through the Ryvoan Pass to Lochan Uaine and then continues to Ryvoan bothy. It passes between the high ground of Meall a'Bhuachaille and Creag nan Gall and, when you emerge onto the open ground by the bothy, there are lovely views towards Bynack More.

Hiking

Ryvoan Pass runs between Glen More at Aviemore and Nethybridge. It climbs to 380 meters and passes through Caledonian pine forests. There are good views of the Cairngorm Mountains and Abernethy Forest.

Hiking

From here the way is not so easy to walk. You climb over rocks and rocks and above all many roots. Part of the way is quite steep. Hiking poles can be helpful.
