Meall Ghaordaidh, Mountain summit in Glen Lochay, Scotland
Meall Ghaordaidh rises to 1039 meters with broad grassy slopes that transition into a rockier terrain near the uppermost section of the mountain.
The mountain name translates from Scottish Gaelic as Hill of the Herds, reflecting the long tradition of pastoral farming in the surrounding glens.
The peak classification as a Munro makes it a destination for mountaineers who aim to climb all Scottish mountains above 3000 feet.
Winter ascents require ice axes and crampons, while summer climbers should prepare for very wet ground conditions on the lower mountain paths.
From the northern approach in Glen Lyon, the mountain displays two distinct buttresses that create a different profile than its southern face.
