Baosbheinn, Mountain summit in Torridon, Scotland
Baosbheinn rises to 875 meters in the Northwest Highlands, extending over 3 kilometers with steep southwestern slopes toward Loch a' Ghobhainn.
The surrounding forest was cut down during the 16th and 17th centuries to provide materials for ironworks operations along Loch Maree.
The mountain earned its name from local interpretation as either Wizard's Hill or Mountain of the Face due to its profile when viewed from Gairloch.
The climb begins at the Red Barn parking area on A832 road, requiring careful navigation of the Abhainn a' Gharbh Choire river crossing.
The mountain contains the largest protalus rampart formation in Great Britain, located at the northwestern end of the ridge.
