About Tullich Hill

Rising steeply between Glen Douglas and Loch Long, this rugged Tump offers a strenuous, pathless climb through thick grass and bracken. Its summit provides a brilliant, earned perspective of the Arrochar Alps, with the jagged silhouettes of The Cobbler and Beinn Narnain standing out across the deep glacial trench of the glen.

Geology
Tullich Hill is formed from Southern Highland Group rocks. You are walking on semipelite, an ancient silt and mud compressed into solid layers of stone.
Classifications

Did You Know?

  • The name derives from the Gaelic 'Tulach', which translates as a green hill or knoll, accurately describing the uniform grassy slopes that define its character.
  • The summit offers a unique visual contrast, looking north toward the wild peaks of the Southern Highlands and south toward the naval infrastructure of the Gare Loch and Faslane.
  • Walkers often pair this hill with its neighbour, Beinn Bhreac; while the ascent of Tullich is notably steep and dry, the connecting ridge between the two is notoriously boggy even in fair weather.
  • Despite its modest height, the southern flank is so relentlessly steep that it serves as a local benchmark for fitness, proving that a hill doesn't need to be a Munro to provide a punishing workout.
