Overview

A relatively short winter Munro walk. Starting near the Devil's Elbow we follow a path up to the southmost ski tows before looping round over Meall Odhar to reach Glas Maol. Thereafter we head south-east along the broadish ridge to Creag Leacach before descending via Meall Gorm back to the start point. Walk should take 5.5 to 6 hours.
