ROUTE 15

Grey Corries Ridge

StartAonach Beag summit (NN 197 715)Distance8.5km/5½ milesTotal ascent900m/3000ftTime4½hr upTerrainMostly paths but with scrambling, boulderfields, and very steep descent off Aonach Beag

If you like your ridges rocky but not scrambly, this is the place to be. For the seriously ambitious, the description begins at Aonach Beag, with various side-routes joining in as we go along the ridge to Stob Coire Claurigh.

See Grey Corries summit summary map. From Aonach Beag descend following big crag drops on the left, first south, then east over a minor hump. After another 500 metres the ridge turns sharply right, southeast, steepening down to the ridge corner at NN 207 708.
