Carn Mor Dearg

A longer route to the summit of Ben Nevis via Allta a'Mhuillin and the neighboring peak of Carn Mor Dearg provides some breathtaking views. The summit itself is a stony desert, apart from the ruined weather station - abandoned in 1894 - and a hotel that closed in 1915. The flattish area around the summit falls gently to the south, but then very steeply down to Glen Nevis.
