Carn a' Mhaim. For the third day of my walking holiday in Braemar in June 2015 I decided to climb the relatively easy summit of Carn a'Mhaim. The walk starts from Linn of Dee through the woods and onto the estate road that goes to Derry Lodge. It was another beautiful day and, shortly after crossing the Lui Water bridge, Carn a'Mhaim could be.

Re: Carn a 'Mhaim, Ben Macdui and Derry Cairngorm. Nice report on this super walk. Cycling to Derry Lodge is the definitely the way to go - did exactly the same route in Feb & it took me a tad over 9 hrs. I had a crackin' day & took some of my best photos that day + I hit the 50 mark on Ben Macdui ( 50 on Macdui ).

Càrn a'Mhaim is a southern satellite of Ben Macdui, to which it is linked by long and very narrow ridge, an unusual feature for the Cairngorms. Càrn a'Mhaim is well seen from Derry Lodge and provides a worthwhile ascent in its own right, though it is even better if continuing to its mighty parent. Terrain

Carn a'Mhaim is predominantly heather covered, thicker lower down, stunted higher up. If aiming to bag Carn a'Mhaim on its own, the approach from Linn of Dee via Derry Lodge and through Gleann Laoigh Bheag makes for a fine approach on estate tracks and well-defined paths on the hillsides and higher ground.

Carn a'Mhaim is a long and magnificent narrow ridge walk to the east of the upper Dee valley (said to be the only real narrow-ridge walk in the Cairngorms), gazing across that great glen to the Cairn Toul massif. Climb onto the ridge from the south, just west of upper Glen Lui, a steep beginning, and head on up rough boulders toward Ben Macdui.

An easy 2km ridge walk above the Lairig Ghru leads to the col below Ben Macdui and the start of a tough 500-metre climb, much of it over a rough boulder-field, to the 1,309-metre-high summit. The second highest summit in Scotland provides an amazing 360-degree panorama of the Cairngorm plateau, especially the views across the Lairig Ghru.
