Meall a' Bhùiridh, Mountain peak in Highland, Scotland
Meall a' Bhùiridh is a mountain in the Highlands that rises to about 1100 meters, with views stretching across Rannoch Moor and the surrounding peaks. The terrain here is rocky and open, typical of Scotland's high moorland landscape.
This peak has guided travelers and inhabitants through the rugged Highlands landscape for many centuries. Its role as a natural landmark has remained consistent through time.
The name comes from Scottish Gaelic, reflecting how the Highlands' geography has shaped local language and identity. You can sense this cultural connection when you see how locals refer to the landscape and its features.
Several routes lead to the summit, with many starting near the Glencoe Mountain Resort facilities. Weather changes quickly at this height, so visitors should come prepared for wind and shifting conditions.
Ski facilities extend near its summit, making it one of the few Scottish mountains where you can experience both alpine climbing and winter sports on the same peak. This blend of natural elevation and developed infrastructure is uncommon in Scotland.
