Creag Pitridh is the smallest of a group of three Munros south of Loch Laggan, overshadowed by its bigger neighbours Geal Chàrn and Beinn a' Chlachair. Its summit carries a cairn and sits high above Lochan na h-Earba, which makes it a fine viewpoint. Old stalkers' routes along the Allt a' Mhaigh give a quieter, if less handy, way up.
