    Tips

    February 12, 2023

    Derry Cairngorm at 1155m is a Munro just south of the main Cairngorm plateau. The views from here are amazing, especially looking west to Ben Macdui.
    It's a brilliant run up from the Lin of Dee, not too steep but definitely a challenge. Once at the top there are loads of options for extending the run, most people will take in either Ben Macdui and return via the excellent Carn a' Mhaim ridge or Beinn Mheadhoin before running back down Glen Derry.

      Derry Cairngorm, 1155m, is a munro and part of the White Mounth circuit. It is one of the best viewpoints for Ben Macdui, seen above the grand Coire Uaine.
