Corrachan Buidhe

Rising to 597 metres in the Scottish Highlands, this Dodd and Tump sits near the Great Glen at grid reference NH300493. The name translates from Gaelic as 'yellow rounded hill', likely describing the terrain or vegetation of its slopes. A modest summit in a region dominated by higher peaks.

• •The name Corrachan Buidhe derives from Gaelic, combining 'corr' (rounded or steep hill), with 'buidhe' meaning yellow or pale-coloured, possibly referring to dead grasses, autumn bracken, or the light colour of weathered rock on its slopes.
• •At just under 600 metres, the summit falls short of both Corbett and Graham status, requiring 762 metres and 610 metres respectively, yet qualifies as a Dodd—one of the hills between 500 and 599 metres listed by Rob Woodall.
• •The hill's location in grid square NH places it in the Central Highlands, likely within sight of the Great Glen—the geological fault line that cleaves Scotland from coast to coast.
