Much of the north-western slopes of the mountain are downhill skiing developments concentrated in Coire Cas. As well as ski tows, snow fences and bulldozed tracks, this corrie is also now home to a funicular railway.
Coire an t-Sneachda is located in Invernesshire, Northern Scotland. The nearest major town is Aviemore. The nearest road access point is the Cairn Gorm ski centre, which is located approximately 4 km away (approx. 45–60 minutes walking, in fair conditions).
The Gaelic Coire an t-Sneachda roughly translates to the English language as "Corrie of the Snow".[1]
