Carn na h-Easgainn

A tiddler just South of Inverness and one that I had spied en route or coming back from business. Being quite fit after my Munro outing a couple of weeks ago, I donned the shorts and took off up the track and past Lynemore, an idyllic wee setting. The land rover track is a bit of an eyesore but takes you steadily up to within several metres of the summit trig point. Here, the views North-West to the Fannaichs, North to Inverness and South to the larger Cairngorms are a reward for such a short trek. I deviated North for 200m to find the cabin, which was unlocked. A huge amount of wood, a stove and some fairly luxurious seating would see this being an ideal place over a Winter's night. There was even a cludgie. I ran back the whole way to the car and done in about 75 minutes. An easy Graham with some excellent views.
