A' Mharconaich and Geal Charn, Drumochter
These are the northerly two summits of the four Munros on the west side of the Drumochter Pass. Geal Charn is a featureless lump with superb views towards Ben Alder, whilst A' Mharconaich is the shapliest of the range, with a steep prow prominent from the A9.
Terrain
Straightforward hillwalking on these heathery mountains; the descent down the nose of A' Mharconaich is steeper and requires more care in winter. Final section is boggy.
Public Transport
None to start.
Start
Car park just off A9 near Balsporran Cottages.
