This was the day I climbed my first Munro for many, many years. It was a gorgeous day and the walk up Glen Clova and into Corrie Fee was gorgous. At the back of the corrie, where it steepens, is a very well angled path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Corrie Fee is an NNR<\/a>, though I don’t know enough about botany to really appreciate it. It’s also a beautiful example of a glacial corrie, and drumlins can be seen in one of the photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first mile and a bit of the walk is along Jocks’ Road<\/a>, one of the old droving routes across the Tolmounth in this case from Braemar and down Glen Clova to Cullow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The intention was to climb Driesh as well, but when I reached the col between them I felt it would be a hill too far. The wobbly state of my legs when I got back down to level ground showed it was a good decision!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
