Other routes and challenges

The approach given above via Coire Mathair Lathail is also the fastest if Meall na Ceapraichean is to be climbed alone, although few have it as their main objective for a hill day.

A possible extension to the round given would be to include Seana Bhràigh - but this would be an extremely epic outing beyond the reach of most hillwalkers.
