Carn na Gearrsaich

Rising to 584 metres in the Scottish Highlands north of the Great Glen, this modest summit occupies rough, heathery ground between more prominent neighbours. The approach typically involves pathless terrain across peat and tussock grass. Classified as both a Dodd and a Tump, it offers a quieter alternative to the busier peaks nearby.

• •The name derives from Gaelic 'Càrn na Gearasaich', meaning 'cairn of the wild or rough place', likely referring to the broken, uneven terrain characteristic of the hill's slopes.
• •Its grid reference NH403458 places it in the midst of classic Highland stalking country, where traditional deer management shapes both the landscape and seasonal access considerations.
