Capull Cloiche

Rising to 577 metres above the Cowal Peninsula in Argyll, this grassy summit offers a straightforward climb with surprisingly extensive views for its modest height. The hill's classification as both a Dodd and Tump reflects its topographic prominence in an area of rolling moorland and forested slopes, standing between Loch Fyne and the more dramatic peaks to the north.

• •The name Capull Cloiche comes from Scottish Gaelic, meaning 'stone horse' or 'horse of the stone', likely referring to a distinctive rock formation on or near the hill that resembled a horse in profile, or perhaps marking a boundary stone associated with horse droving routes.
• •Despite its relatively modest height, the summit provides clear views across Loch Fyne to the Arrochar Alps, with Ben Lomond visible on clearer days to the northeast.
• •The hill sits within the Cowal Peninsula, an area historically isolated by sea lochs and once accessible mainly by ferry, giving it a quiet, overlooked character even today despite reasonable road access from Dunoon.
