Added Cairn a'Mhaim to this route. Would definitely recommend taking a bike to Derry Lodge as it is a long way back to the car park.
Another idea is wild camping the night before the walk at Derry lodge as it looked ideal and would save you about 1 hour in the morning.
Great walk with stunning scenery from the summit of Ben Macdui. The ridge from Ben Macdui to Carn a'Mhaim has excellent views of the Lairig Ghru and the Devils Point.
Warning
Please note that hillwalking when there is snow lying requires an ice-axe, crampons and the knowledge, experience and skill to use them correctly. Summer routes may not be viable or appropriate in winter. See winter information on our skills and safety pages for more information.
