About Elrick More
Standing at 516 metres in the Central Highlands, this modest summit earns its place as a Dodd and Tump but sees relatively few visitors. The grid reference NN964465 places it in the rolling moorland country north of Strathallan, where grassy slopes and occasional peat hags characterise the terrain. A quiet hill for those seeking solitude.
