Braeriach is the third-highest mountain in the British Isles, surpassed only by Ben Nevis and Ben Macdui. It is the highest point in the western massif of the Cairngorms, separated from the central section by the pass of the Lairig Ghru. The summit has a crescent shape, with several corries. The lingering snows of Braeriach are amongst the most persistent snow patches in Scotland and - by extension - the entire British Isles. The north-facing corrie of Garbh Coire Mor has been snow-free just seven times in the last one hundred years: 1933, 1959, 1996, 2003, 2006, 2017 and 2021, although the rate and occurrence of melting appears to be increasing.
