Beinn Dubh

A modest summit in the Scottish Highlands, rising to 515 metres near the shores of the Cromarty Firth. The coordinates place this hill in the eastern Highlands north of Inverness, where rolling terrain characterises the landscape. Classified as both a Dodd and a Tump, rewarding those who seek out Scotland's quieter, less-trodden heights.

• •The name Beinn Dubh derives from Scottish Gaelic, meaning 'black mountain' or 'dark mountain', likely referring to the colour of the hill's vegetation, peat-covered slopes, or the sombre appearance it presents under certain lighting conditions.
• •The grid reference NH709326 places this summit in Easter Ross, a region more often associated with coastal scenery and farmland than dramatic mountain terrain, making it a relatively secluded objective compared to the crowded Munros further west.
