Carn Loch a' Mhuilinn

A remote Corbett-height summit in the Monadhliath Mountains west of Loch Ness, sitting above the eastern shore of its namesake loch. The terrain is typical of this quiet range: heathery slopes, peat hags, and broad ridges offering wide views across the Great Glen. A hill for those seeking solitude rather than drama.

• •The name derives from Scottish Gaelic, meaning 'cairn of the loch of the mill', suggesting a former mill structure once stood beside the waters below the summit.
• •Despite its modest height of 567 metres, the hill sits in one of Scotland's least-visited mountain ranges, the Monadhliath, which see a fraction of the foot traffic compared to the neighbouring Cairngorms.
• •The summit grid reference NH384247 places it firmly in the watershed between Loch Ness to the north and the headwaters of the River Tarff to the south.
