Cairngorms Solo Wild Camp - Aviemore to Blair Atholl via Braeriach Cairn Toul Traverse

A solo hiking and wild camping trip via Braeriach Cairn Toul Traverse to the West of Lairig Ghru in the Cairngorms National Park, a short bank holiday weekend trip with my 3F UL XPAC Backpack and my trusty 3F Lanshan.

The Aviemore to Blair Atholl route in total was 67km or 42 miles with 2000 metres gained. I camped for 2 nights and completed the trip in just over 2 days.

Day 1: Train to Aviemore before setting off on the route. Climbed up Braeriach (1296m) and continued the traverse to Carn na Criche and Falls of Dee before pitching up just North of Cairn Toul. 21km and 1200m climbed

Day 2: Continued the traverse, climbed Cairn Toul (1291m) and Devil's Point (1004m), before descending down and following River Dee and River Tilt. Camped South of Falls of Tarf. 32km and 900m climbed

Day 3: Hiked out through Glen Tilt to Blair Atholl train station. 16km and 150m climbed.
