The Cairngorms are renowned for their huge high plateaux but Derry Cairngorm is one of the few summits in the range with a genuinely aesthetic outline, rising as it does to a noble cone above the ...

Summit Comment Peter Walker 2 months ago
Slightly off-route (but easily visited) from the frequently essayed round of Cairn Bannoch and Broad Cairn, the Munro top of Creag an Dubh-loch is nevertheless the most arresting eminence in its n...

Remarkable Quartz Mound Main Attraction
by Aidy  19 Aug 2014
I reached the summit coming from Ardnageer, on my way to Croaghgorm, and although the summit is difficult to distinguish from Ardnageer, it is on the natural route to Croaghgorm, the white quartz mound nearby is a useful guide, and as you get closer, the summit cairn can be seen. Having bagged the summit, I took the short detour to visit the quartz mound, which for me was definitely the most interesting thing about this peak. I've never seen anything quite like it - a beautiful sight. (See my somment on Lavagh More for a photo). Onwards to Croaghgorm from here. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/235/comment/17626/
