About Glas Tulaichean
Glas Tulaichean, An Glas-Thulchan in Gaelic, is a large and complex hill of the Mounth, standing some 18 km south of Braemar within Perth and Kinross and inside the Cairngorms National Park.
It is the highest of a cluster of domed hills occupying the remote ground between the head of Glen Tilt and Glen Shee to the east. Most walkers approach from the Spittal of Glenshee by way of Glen Lochsie, on the southern side.
