Stob an Uillt-fhearna

Tucked away in the remote interior east of Kyle of Lochalsh, this 661-metre Tump offers a rugged, pathless character typical of the Monar Forest. Its quiet summit provides an excellent perspective across the deep waters of Loch Monar and toward the wild, high ridges of the surrounding Highlands.

• •Derived from the Gaelic for 'Peak of the stream of the alder tree,' the name identifies the hill by the specific vegetation and watercourses draining its lower flanks.
• •The summit provides a clear vantage point over the remote Loch Monar reservoir to the north and the massive, high ridge of An Riabhachan to the south.
• •It remains a remarkably effective place to avoid people, as most walkers in the area are too busy staring at their Munro lists to notice this Tump exists.
