Did You Know?

• •The name translates from Gaelic as 'Peak of the Raven's Crag,' suggesting a high-altitude residence for Scotland’s smartest birds, though they usually just watch you struggle from a distance.
• •Geologically, it sits in the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, acting as a dramatic balcony overlooking the southern end of the majestic Glen Dochart.
• •Despite its modest Graham status, its prominence of over 180 meters ensures you'll still be doing enough vertical work to justify that extra pint at the Crianlarich Hotel later.
• •It is frequently overlooked by peak-baggers racing toward the neighboring 3,000-foot giants, making it a perfect retreat for those who prefer solitude over summit selfies.
• •The final ascent involves enough 'character-building' boggy terrain to ensure your boots reach a state of dampness that even professional-grade Gore-Tex will eventually surrender to.
