I've been into the Cairngorms many times now, usually doing the more recognised and established routes. On many of these routes I pass or can see Derry Cairngorm, and it has always looked like it would be ridable. After checking on Google Earth many times, I decided that it was worth a try in real life. In this video, you will see the results of me giving it a go.
