Coire an t-Sneachda is one of the most accessible of Britain's high mountain corries, the ski station car park and a superbly constructed path ensuring its popularity. The corrie itself is a grand cirque of cliffs, slashed by snow for much of the year and a popular venue for rock and ice-climbing depending on the season.

Terrain

Well made paths but situation can be very exposed; hillwalking gear should be carried. Despite the easy access the floor of the corrie is over 900 metres up.

Public Transport

Bus to Cairngorm ski centre from Aviemore.

Start

Cairngorm Ski Centre car park (charge). Open start point in Google Maps for directions.
