This review is from: Kingussie and Monadhliath Mountains (Landranger Maps) (Paperback)
Ordnance Survey Landranger maps are ideally suited for automobile and foot navigation across the British Isles. Landranger #35 Kingussie & Monadhliath Mountains covers an area in the Northern Highlands east of Loch Ness and generally west of the A9 highway.
Landranger maps, at a scale of 1:50,000, provide marvelous multi-colored detail of terrain, contour, and physical structures. This map sheet is bounded on one corner by Loch Ness and Glen Albyn, on another by the A86 as it heads to Spean Bridge, on a third by Glen Feshie, and on a fourth by the holiday town of Aviemore on the A9. In the center of the mapsheet are the Monadhliath Mountains, rough, barren and with little population or road access. Unfortunately, the Monadhliaths are light on Monro-scale peaks and get less attention. The A9 corridor does offer a variety of holiday activities and attractions, including Ruthven Barracks, a ruined British stronghold dating back to the Jacobite rebellions.
Ordnance Survey Landranger #35 is very highly recommended to those planning to explore this part of the Scottish Highlands.
