About Creag Liaragan Far West Top

A remote minor summit in the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs area, standing at 515 metres on the slopes above Glen Falloch.

Did You Know?

  • The name 'Creag Liaragan' derives from Scottish Gaelic, with 'creag' meaning 'crag' or 'rocky outcrop', though the meaning of 'Liaragan' remains uncertain – it may relate to a personal name or a now-obscure local feature.
  • The 'Far West Top' suffix indicates this summit is the westernmost point of a multi-topped hill, suggesting at least one other 'Creag Liaragan' top exists further east along the same ridge system.
  • Its classification as both a Dodd (a hill between 2000 and 2500 feet anywhere in the British Isles) and a Tump (a hill with at least 30 metres of prominence) places it in categories valued by peak-baggers seeking completionist challenges beyond the better-known lists.
