    Amazing views from the top would definitely recommend. It's great how close it is to Aviemore and that you can get such great views without actually going up a mountain. Can be boggy in parts so wear appropriate footwear!

      From the top of the Craigellachie you can enjoy beautiful panoramas. The "cairn" indicates that you are there.

        You can very well see the shape of Lochan Dubh. The lake is 1 kilometer long.
