Beinn Leabhainn

Rising above the northern side of Glen Dochart near Killin, this bulky Tump offers a quieter alternative to the neighbouring Munros. Its grassy slopes and occasional craggy outcrops lead to a summit with commanding views south over the glen towards the shapely peaks of Ben More and Stob Binnein.

• •The name derives from the Gaelic 'Beinn Leamhain', which is usually translated as the 'Hill of the Elm Trees', likely referring to the historically wooded lower slopes descending into the glen.
• •Located on the long ridge extending east from the Munros Meall Glas and Beinn Cheathaich, the hill provides an excellent vantage point for inspecting the complex northern corries of those higher peaks.
• •The summit panorama is dominated by the massive twin pyramids of Ben More and Stob Binnein to the south, while to the northeast, the eye follows the length of Loch Tay towards the distant silhouette of Schiehallion.
• •Despite its respectable height of 709 metres, it lacks the 150 metres of prominence required for Graham status, ensuring it remains blissfully ignored by most hikers passing through the Crianlarich crossroads.
