The Artic Plateaux of Ben Avon and Ben a' Bhuird

Ben Avon and Ben a' Bhuird are hill walking country par excellence. They form the most extensive mountain massif in the Cairngorms.

Golden Eagle, Mountain Hare and Ptarmigan haunt these arctic plateaux whilst herds of Red Deer roam the vast expanse of the Caiplich Moors and Upper Glenavon below.

Hidden between these two mountains in Garbh Choire are some of the best rock climbs in the Cairngorms, whilst to the west lies remote Loch Avon.
