Grey Corries / Glen Nevis traverse (Long Day) – Meet Venue changed to Northern Cairngorms due to bad weather conditions
Day Meets
The Grampian Club arranges monthly Day Meets 10 months of the year, usually on the second or third weekend. On each day meet there are different options for walks provided.
They are of varying grades, from easier low level walks to challenging mountain traverses. In the summer months the walks are often longer and there are often opportunities to do several Munros in a day.
If Grampian Club Members have a route they would like to do on the day they can contact the day meet organiser to arrange this (note that the minimum number in a group is preferably 2 in the summertime and 3 in the winter time).
We travel by coach from Dundee, picking up in Perth when heading west. Members are expected to choose walks that are within their own physical capabilities and the Day Meets Team organise attendees into parties of broadly similar ability.
There is a fee for the Day Meets coach (£16) which needs to be paid in advance at the time of booking, preferably via the online booking website, Entry Central, or by cheque.
Here are a few suggestions for the day (OS Map 41). Any other ideas welcome.
- Grey Corries circuit from Corriechoille – Stob Choire Claurigh, Stob Coire an Laoigh (0.5km/1380m, 8-9hrs).
- Stob Ban there and back from Corriechoille (21km/1100m, 7-8hrs)
- Corbetts pair Cruach Innse and Sgurr Innse from Corriechoille (18km/1085m, 6-7hrs)
- Beinn a’ Chaorainn, Beinn Teallach circuit from Roughburn (16km/1160m, 6-7hrs)
- Lower-level route – Corriechoille to Lairig Leacach bothy (16km/500m, 5-6hrs).
It may also be possible to drop parties at the Fersit road end to access the Easains or the Chno Dearg pair but be aware that this would involve a 2.5 mile road walk in and out.
