  • An early start on theses two fine Munros in the Cairngorms started with a bike ride to the old lodge ruins then from there it was on to tackle the Munros. The weather was decent for walking in and no rain but was a bit blustery at the top.

      🤣he sure will the list is expanding soon be doing loch swimming 🤣but the weather stayed kind for a change a tad windy up top but didn't spoil the day . i put the drone up at the tors and the wind was blowing all over the place struggled to get it to land thought it was going to crash in to the tors but glad at the ruins it was a bit more sheltered so managed to get it up foe some shots. fare enjoyed this one was dreading it as a long route but the bike sure helped.

    Nice one Ally, I enjoyed these 2 and defo need the bike, I went up the lower path with bike and came down the higher path, what a bloody palaver that was. Better leaving the bike at junction where path splits. I nearly crashed my drone at Tors as well with the wind😂😂
    Great edit and another 2 in the bag.🏔🏔👍

      A great walk this one Frank really enjoyed it and the weather was pretty decent for a change. Definitely using the bike took a few hours of the walk but should have left the bike at the junction as ended up pushing up to the ruins. Another 2 done Frank but would have loved to have a few more done by now but this weather has been rotten fingers crossed for the weekend 😀. Atb Ally 👍

      Its a great route Andy and great paths well on the way back down not the best through a lot of heather that's over grown, definitely one foe the bike to shorten it down as is a long route. manged to get the drone up at the ruins as it was a bit sheltered there. Atb Ally 👍

    A big day out Ally, cracking video. Missed you by a week! Was up last weekend, camped at the Sneck as to windy to do my planned camp on Ben Avon. Not had best of luck with biking to these hills, was ok this weekend but previously came of on narrow path above ruins, just a few scratches, ended up with my backside in the water when crossing one of the burns and time before last had a puncher on way out, must save at least a couple of hours on the day though.Cheers Paul

      Hi Paul thanks again that's a bummer would have been nice to have bumped in to you. there was a guy camping just down from the sneck when i was there was chatting to him , the bike sure takes a good bit of which is great as is a long route . I just had the one injury tripping over my own feet lol and thought i was going to end up in the river as was high with all the rain fall from the night before. Atb Ally👍

      Hi Paul, I’m planning to do these two this coming Thursday, was there much in the way of camping pitches at the Sneck? I’m planning an overnight and trying to decide where to pitch.
      Glad you got to do them this time.
      Cheers

      @@timothyewart8160 Hi Tim, as you climb up to the Sneck there are some reasonable pitches on the left. I camped on Ben Avon before a little beyond the summit and there looks to plenty of pitches on Ben a’Bhuird on the east side of the plateau. There’s water sources quite close to all mentioned.

      As always a cracking vid. A great day too. I’m going up with a mate to do these two on Thursday/Fri. Planning a wild camp and was hoping to pitch at the ruins but your( very useful) drone footage would indicate that there’s not much put put a tent on. I may keep going up to the waterfall.
      Impressive walk/ bike/run time also.
      Cheers
