The Glen Shee Six

A long day out on the plateau east of the Glen Shee Ski Centre.

The Glas Maol circuit is a fairly straight forward walk with it's high start point near the Glen Shee Ski Centre. The plateau is reasonably flat and featureless meaning good progress can be made between the Munro summits. It can be boggy, especially out by Tolmount and Tom Buidhe and navigation can be challenging in poor visibility.

Rough Route Stats

Distance: 25km

Ascent: 1100m

We've graded this as a red adventure due to its length. Although the route is relatively straight forward, 25km is a test for most people on the flat so adding in 6 Munros makes for a strenuous day out. Munros included on this route are Carn an Tuirc, Cairn of Claise, Tolmount, Tom Buidhe, Glas Maol and Creag Leacach.
