Càrn Liath is a twin-summited mountain of 2,828 feet in the mountainous Mar district of Aberdeenshire, within the Grampian Mountains, and four and a half miles north of Braemar. Its height is too low for it to be accounted a munro, but Cairn Liath is listed as a Corbett.

Between the two summits, a thousand yards apart, is a saddle between gullies down which run burns to north and to south.

The little River Gairn runs below the mountain to the north.
