After cycling 7 miles up the gravel track in Glen Tanar we come across this rather remote cottage set among the Scottish Highlands. A lovely place, but a bugger if you've forgotten to get the milk! We're nearly at the foot of Mount Keen now though, so gotta keep moving. Mount Keen is my 11th Munro and this is my second time of climbing it. It is the most easterly of all the Munros and stands at 939 Meters (3080 feet), forming an almost perfect cone. A 7 mile cycle up Glen Tanar gets us to the foot of the 2 mile ascent up the mountain.
