Craigie Doubs
Craigie Doubs are a series of crags at the head of the Caenlochan Glen under Glas Maol (1068m/194m). This is an area which rivals Ben Lawers for alpine plants due to the calcium and magnesium rich rocks. Unlike the Monadh Ruadh and Lochnagar, the plateau is not barren, but very grassy with peat deposits in sheltered hollows. The fertility also means that hares and their predators are more numerous here.
