Ryvoan Bothy
Feb 24th, 2007 by claire
Either from Nethy Bridge or from the car park at Glenmore Forest there is a great walk to Ryvoan Bothy through the Cairngorms. Great views of the mountains, loch morlich and the special “green lochan” its a simple enough walk for all the family. Walking Scotland has a great guide to get there you will need Explore 403 map to keep you on track. Should be in the drawer!
From the car park to Glenmore Lodge the route follows a single track road; from there to the Green Lochan the path is very good; Green Lochan to Ryvoan not so good. This last section, and particularly the climb up from the Green Lochan on the return journey, make boots advisable.
On this section of the walk, at 400m, there are superb views across the Pass of Ryvoan into the Northern Corries.
Once you get to the top you will be very happy! Take a flask
