Amazing scramble with great views of Ben Nevis and the ridge along the way

You're in for a treat with the scree surfing descent of this Munro into Glen Nevis. Let gravity take you!

Great view of Ben Nevis and the ridge on they way to the top.

Despite being the ninth highest Munro, Càrn Mòr Dearg is best known for the rocky, narrow ridge that connects to its rather burly neighbour, Ben Nevis. It's perhaps the quality of its famous ridge and its proximity to the biggest mountain in the land that means Càrn Mòr Dearg's summit is rarely the main objective. However, a fine summit it is! It's relatively remote and takes a good deal of effort regardless of starting point. In terms of ascents, its east ridge gives good entertainment, while the more serious east ridge of Càrn Dearg Meadhonach is another good option. However, most access the summit from Coire Leis, via a steep slog up its western flanks.

Ben Nevis is Britain's highest mountain and arguably its greatest from a mountaineering perspective too. This is mostly down to its immense North Face, a treasure trove of ridges, buttresses and gullies that climbers have been testing themselves on for generations. Leaving the summit in poor visibility during winter poses significant dangers due to the cornices that form on the Ben's gullies. The safest way off is to walk on a bearing of 231 degrees for 492 feet (150 m) from the summit trig point. Then, walk on a bearing of 282 degrees to intercept the zig zags of the Pony Track.

One of four peaks on the classic 'Ring of Steall' round. It links to the remainder of the Mamores via the famous Devil's ridge, a grade one scramble. In clear weather you can see across Glen Nevis towards the summit of Ben Nevis.

Love the CMD route, fantastic way up the mountain

Just after this Loch you will be presented to choose your path. If you head right you will be going up the most popular route for Ben Nevis. However if you turn left you will have the opportunity to tackle the summit via the Càrn Mòr Dearg Arête. It will be challenging, but I recommend going left!
