Creag an Dail Bheag

Càrn Liath was renamed Creag an Dail Bheag when its western summit was found to be higher than its eastern one.

Other routes and challenges

The route above makes use of the track over the bealach east of Càrn Liath to make the easiest ascent; however, old stalkers paths also head towards the hill east of the Glas Allt Beag. An epic approach would be up Glen Gairn past Corndavon Lodge.
