About Beinn na Sroine
Overlooking the village of Tyndrum and the head of Glen Lochy, this steep-sided Graham serves as a superb viewpoint for the celebrated Ben Lui massif. Its grassy slopes rise sharply from the glen floor, offering a quiet, less-trodden alternative to the neighbouring Munros with clear lines of sight toward Beinn Odhar.

Did You Know?
- •The name is derived from the Scottish Gaelic 'Beinn na Sròine', meaning 'Hill of the Nose'. This refers to the prominent, tapering spur that projects westward into Glen Lochy, a common descriptive term in Highland topography for hills with distinctive, protruding profiles.
- •The summit offers one of the finest perspectives of the dramatic Northeast Corrie of Ben Lui (Beinn Laoigh), allowing walkers to study the complex rocky architecture of its higher neighbour without the crowds or technical difficulty.
- •It is frequently climbed from the Glen Lochy car park on the A85, though it can be combined with the neighbouring Graham, Meall nan Tighearn, for a longer ridge traverse overlooking the Cononish glen.
- •Despite its status as a Marilyn with over 300 metres of prominence, it is often relegated to the role of a landscape feature for photographers trying to frame the more famous peaks behind it.
