  Guided walk up the Glenshee Munros  


Day walk up the eastern Glenshee Munros


Days : 1  Max ratio : 1:8  Cost : £50  Dates : 5 June



We're up in Royal Deeside for 2 days for the Queen's Jubilee holiday !

On this day, which is day 3 of our Jubilee trip into Royal Deeside, we're heading up the eastern Glenshee peaks, bagging 6 Munros including Glas Maol, Tolmount and Carn an Tuirc.

On the Sunday day prior to this day, we're biking west from Linn of Dee into remote Carn Ealar and An Sgarsoch, details are here.

On the previous day to this Glenshee trip, we're hillwalking up the circuit of Munros surrounding Loch Muick including Lochnagar and Broad Cairn - more details of this walk are here.

General outline of trip :

The Mounth is a high level plain with many peaks and coires. Glenshee divides this remote area and it is on the eastern side of this plain we are heading onto. Exceptionally difficult to navigate on, this area has 6 Munro peaks hiding amongst the glens and corries, including Glas Maol, Cairn of Claise and Tolmount, and we'll be bagging all on one day's hillwalking starting from the Ski Centre at the highest point on the pass. Although billed as a day taking in 6 Munros, the pace is not as arduous as it sounds and we'll have plenty time to stop at summit cairns to take in the views.

You'll need general hillwalking equipment for the day - a list is here.

You can book the trip using our booking form.

We're intending to be based in Braemar overnight and can offer transport from Edinburgh or Perth for people wanting to walk all three days on this Jubilee break.
