The Cairnwell is
definitely one of the easiest
Munros
to hike thanks to the high starting point at the Glenshee ski-centre.
The summit is "polluted" by a number of buildings and antennas, but
this doesn't make much impact on the view away from the summit.
The north-eastern slopes are hosts to ski slopes.
The Cairnwell is ranked as
Munro #245.
