Hatching a cunning plan for the gorms, anyone with experience of the Larigh Ghru north of Corour bothy, i have a feeling there is a lot of pushing involved, yay or nay.

far too much carrying…………..but worth it for the bragging rights.

Yeah, I walked it a few years back – remember thinking it would be a bit of a mission on the bike!

Yup pushing all the way for about 4k. total boulder field. would also be a pain in the derrière pushing, I’d only try it if I was very fit (but I’m not.

can be really muddy from white Bridge up to the bothy, just to add to the fun 🙂

Any excuse to post this :wink::

Yes, you will have to carry … alot. However it is worth it IMO.

EDIT: Here is the route though we ended up doing it in a single day:

Lairig Ghru – 2 Day Route by wintericemonkey, on Flickr

My thats a big day out!

Cheers for that Fraser looks epic, just out of curiosity how long did the section north of the bothy take you.

Fergal – I think from the Bothy over to Rothiemurchus took about 5 hours.

The singletrack down the North side of the Lairig Ghru (from about 1.50 in the video) is fantastic
