Classifications

Did You Know?

  • •The name Meall Reamhar derives from Scottish Gaelic, meaning 'fat or broad rounded hill', an apt description of its relatively gentle profile when viewed from the shores of Loch Fyne below.
  • •The hill overlooks Strachur Bay on Loch Fyne's eastern shore, where small vessels have traditionally sought shelter from northeasterly and southeasterly winds.
  • •At 565 metres, this summit qualifies as both a Dodd and a Tump, placing it among Scotland's lesser-known but rewarding lower hills that offer genuine hill character without Munro-level commitment.
