Planning a mash up of the Cairngorms Loop in October. We wont have time/fitness for whole 186 miles so i'm wopndering if anyone has done it beofre and knows the bits "not to be missed".
Currently thinking of heading out of aviemore on the outter loop before cutting over by the Ryvoan Bothy to head down Glen Derry. Depending on progress we'd stay at Hutchinsons hut the first night, then over to Braemar for breakfast/brunch. Aftrer that I'm not sure. Perhaps down to Blair Athol via Glen Tilt and continue round the outer loop. Alternative is head for Inner loop to head back towards Aviemore.
Anyone get any tips on the above? Have I missed anything that should not be missed? I reckon we'll aim for 35-40 miles a day as I dont like rushing and we struggled to get above that during a trip round the lakes last year.
