A long hillwalk taking in the five Munros on the extensive White Mounth plateau. Lochnagar is by far the finest of the summits, but in good weather this is all a hugely enjoyable round with a great feeling of space.

Terrain

A long and exposed mountain route; in good conditions the stony, tundra-like terrain makes for easy going.

Public Transport

None to start.

Start

Car park at Spittal of Glen Muick. Open start point in Google Maps for directions.
