Loch Morlich
As we descend further from the summit of the Cairn Gorm mountain, the slopes open up to give us a fantastic view of the blue water of Loch Morlich far below us. Beyond the loch, through the forests, the highland town of Aviemore can be made out, which we'll have to drive back through to get home.
Cairn Gorm, the mountain from which the Cairngorm mountain range gets its name, stands at 1245 meters (4085 feet) and is my 4th Munro of the season, my 27th in total. The hike (no bike this time) sees me covering a circuit of just over 7 miles and making an elevation gain of around 762 meters (2500 feet).
