Carn Glas-choire is a mountain on the border of Nairnshire and Inverness-shire. It is at the very southernmost point of Nairnshire and is its highest point too, the county top.
Not a dramatic peak, Carn Glas-choire's summit is the highest point of the huge plateau spread out northeast of the Slochd Pass, a place of bleak, wind-ravaged moorland.
A little below the summit is a sizeable lochan named Loch Bràigh Bhruthiach, and from here and many burns on the mountainside run waters which swell the River Findhorn to the west. Waters run south from the mountain to Carrbridge and Duthil to swell the River Dulnain and thence the Spey.
