Hill of Adenaich

Rising to 553 metres in the eastern Highlands, this Dodd and Tump offers a modest ascent through typical Perthshire hill country. The summit sits north of Glen Almond, providing a viewpoint over a landscape of rounded ridges and forested glens that characterise this transitional zone between lowland and mountain.

• •The name 'Adenaich' derives from Scottish Gaelic, likely from 'aodann' meaning face or slope, possibly referring to a distinctive hillside feature visible from the glen below.
• •At 553 metres, this hill qualifies as a Dodd – a classification requiring hills between 500 and 599 metres with at least 30 metres of prominence – making it part of a category that bridges the gap between modest tops and the higher mountain classifications.
