Ben Macdui from Deeside
‘The long walk in’, a term used by some to describe the approach of the main Cairngorm plateau from Deeside, the shorter approach being from the north ski centre. The long walk in is not too far though, with just a fine short 5km to Derry Lodge, after which options are opened on your way up to the hills, including Ben Macdui.
