Druim Bhuirich

Rising to 586 metres in the northeastern Highlands, this Dodd occupies rolling moorland terrain near the Ladder Hills. The summit offers a modest ascent through heather and grass, typical of the quieter hills in this part of Aberdeenshire. Views extend across the upper Don valley and surrounding farmland below.

• •The name derives from Scottish Gaelic 'Druim Buidhe', meaning 'yellow ridge', likely describing the colour of dried grasses or bracken on its long summit crest.
• •The hill sits within the Ladder Hills group, a cluster of modest Dodds and Tumps that form a transition zone between the higher Cairngorms to the west and the gentler farmland of Strathdon to the east.
• •At 586 metres, it qualifies as a Dodd—a hill between 2000 and 2499 feet with sufficient prominence—making it one of the lower summits in a region dominated by much higher Munros and Corbetts.
