Chalamain Gap

Adopted by Ben

Starting from Sugarbowl car park, this route links the road towards Cairngorm Mountain ski area and the Lairig Ghru path. After a nice  woodland walk and crossing the footbridge over Allt Mor burn, the trail forks left and comes out of the woods following a high bank of the burn. Well-built path continues until a narrow pass filled with boulders, the Chalamain gap. After tackling this tricky section, the route descends gradually towards Lairig Ghru, offering great views.
