Itinerary description

Beinn a' Chaorainn (1052) East Ridge
Grade I
Marta, Rob
9,7km
805m ascent

CAT
Aquesta caminada parteix per una pista forestal, recorrent prats (vistes impressionants) i després de nou una bonica pista molt ampla pel bosc. Després d'uns 3,2 km aproximadament, girem a l'esquerra i enfrontem la muntanya que anirem ha pujar.
La pujada comença amb un pendent nevat que després es converteix en una grimpada per la cresta, alternant neu i roca. La pujada és generalment fàcil però té alguns trams breus d'exposició, és recomanable encordar-se. Tingueu en compte que en mal temps a la part superior de la carena hi ha una alta probabilitat que no hi hagi visibilitat i que hi hagi mòlt de vent.
El descens és en un pendent suau i fàcil pels genolls.
Baixant, fixeu-vos bé en la pista i tracteu d'utilitzar una ruta més directa (al voltant dels 7 km del nostre track de GPS, proveu d'ajuntar-vos a la ruta de pujada fent una drecera).

This walk starts off on a forestry track, traversing some planes (awesome views) and then again on a nice wide piste through the forest. After approximately 3.2km we turn left and face the mountain that we will be climbing.
The ascent starts with a snowy slope that then turns into a ridge scramble, alternating between snow and rock. The climb is generally easy but has some short sections of exposure, it is recommendable to rope-up. Be aware that in bad weather at the top of the ridge there is a high probability of a complete whiteout and very windy.
The descent is on gentle slopes and easy on the knees.
Coming down pay attention to the track and try to use a more direct route (around the 7km from our gps track try and join the ascent path making a shortcut).
