Beith Og

Rising to 595 metres in the Scottish Highlands, this Dodd and Tump sits at grid reference NN272895. The name suggests Gaelic origins, with 'Beith' meaning birch and 'Og' meaning young, possibly referencing younger birch woodland on its slopes. A modest summit offering typical Highland terrain without the crowds of more celebrated peaks.

• •The name 'Beith Og' translates from Gaelic as 'young birch', likely referring to regenerating birch woodland that once covered the lower slopes, distinguishing it from older, more established forest elsewhere in the vicinity.
• •As a Dodd, this hill meets the criteria of reaching at least 500 metres with 30 metres of prominence, a classification introduced by Rob Woodall to recognise Scotland's middling summits that fall between Munros and the lower tops.
• •The grid reference NN272895 places it in the central Highlands, though its relative obscurity means it sees far fewer boots than neighbouring summits within the more celebrated mountain groups.
