Short diversion from the SW. Cairn in the open but not quite on the high point. | Colin Crawford | 22/09/2020 |
After Daimh - a brief interruption to a fine bike descent to the Clash Wood car park. Rooty singletrack to finish. 
Summit in the open, a short path deviation from Speyside Way which is not the boggy morass it was in 2005. | fasgadh | 21/07/2020 |
Tomnavoulin circular. Final top of ridge before taking waymarked route back to start. | Smudge | 22/12/2019 |
Speyside Way path from Carn Daimh. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 30/06/2019 |
From Glenconglass CP (free) - around Daimh Forest circuit, anti-clockwise (not recommeneded as the waymarkers are positioned only for clockwise users - so you have to guess where the route goes, then you can use the eyes in the back of your head to see if you guessed correctly) - route unclear until hit the Speyside Way. | Isbjorn | 21/05/2019 |
along Speyside Way from Tomintoul | KeithByTheC | 17/05/2019 |
Last of a Carn Liath(qv), Carn Daimh(qqv) and Cairn Ellick round from Tomnavoulin. We walked up the Speyside Way, in the forest, and where it turned L and descended we went R on a path, made the first footprints in a snowdrift and reached the top at the entrance to a wide clearing. With Pete. Though we did a circular walk, it would be possible to do it as a walk back to Tomintoul, where we were staying, on Tu or Th using a bus service. | pwheeler | 19/03/2019 |
Cairn Ellick, Carn Daimh & Carn Liath from Tomnavoulin - all of which are pretty much on the Carn Daimh Circuit (which is well signposted). A really pleasant three hour or so stroll around the Allt a Choire watershed, taking in sheep, sheep dogs, cows, mud, forestry, and mist interspersed with fine views. | summitter | 06/01/2019 |
