Beinn Ghlas, Scottish mountain peak in Perth and Kinross, United Kingdom.

Rising to 1,103 meters above sea level, Beinn Ghlas features grassy slopes, rocky outcrops, and craggy northern faces within the Ben Lawers Range.

The mountain received its name from the Gaelic language, with 'Beinn Ghlas' referring to the grey-green color of the mica-schist rock that forms its structure.

Beinn Ghlas stands as one of Scotland's 282 Munros, mountains exceeding 3,000 feet, holding the 47th position in height among these classified peaks.

The National Trust for Scotland maintains a car park near the mountain, providing direct access to a marked trail that leads up the southwestern ridge.

The mountain slopes contain significant deposits of garnets, visible in outcrops along the hiking paths that traverse the terrain.
