Superb sunny evening ascent after An Socach. ATV track most of the way up from valley below An Socach. Contoured north of lake Vrotachan -mainly pathless-but probably should have kept on south side. Alone, but met Gordon’s back in Glenshee carpark after descent on grassy ski run and gravel track. | Denise | 19/04/2023 |
Parked at the ski centre (£3 in the cafe or online with a printer). Up service track to Carn Aosda and Cairnwell, then out and back to Carn a Gheoidh and Carn Bhinnein. Heavy snowfall previous day already starting to thaw but down to about 600m. Cloud base improved during the day but limited views. With Gillian. | richard69 | 15/04/2023 |

Third hill. Followed track up and double backed to reach summit. Met a family with little boy (about 6years). Very enthusiastic about hill walking and asked me if I enjoyed it! Sun decided to bless us - lots of hares seen. GMacthen led down to coffee and cake! | elizyanne | 14/10/2022 |
