Path Maintenance – Meall a’Bhuachaille
April 22, 2025 @ 09:30 - 16:00
Another day of path maintenance on this popular Corbett!
Meall a’Bhuachaille rises north of Glenmore and offers a lovely hike, passing ancient Caledonian pines, green lochan and Ryvoan bothy. The path then starts climbing up and includes some steep stone-pitching sections. It gradually eases off before reaching the summit and revealing panoramic views of the Cairngorms.
Location: Glenmore Lodge, Aviemore
Time: 9:30 am – 4 pm
Facilities: There are accessible toilets at Glenmore Lodge.
On the day
Volunteers will help to improve another section of this popular trail and experience path building techniques.
Requirements
No experience of path work is required. Tools, work gloves and safety glasses will be provided.
Volunteers must be used to spending time outdoors, have experience walking in the hills, have a good physical fitness and be capable of using tools. 14 to 18-year-olds are welcome to join in as long as they are accompanied by a responsible adult.
What to bring
Appropriate footwear (preferably waterproof boots with firm ankle support), suitable clothing for a full day in the hills (including waterproofs, cap or hat and spare warm layer to be prepared for changing weather conditions), insect repellent and sunscreen, and plenty of water and food for the day.
