Standing at the highest point of the northern edge of the central Cairngorms massif,
Cairn Gorm itself is very prominent in views of these mountains from Speyside. Its
rounded dome rises above the bowl of Coire Cas, with the narrow Coire na Ciste to
the north-east and the very fine Coire an t-Sneachda and Coire an Lochain - the
Northern Corries - to the south-west.
