Stùc a' Chroin is a mountain summit in the Grampians of Scotland, rising to 975 meters with steep rocky slopes and exposed cliff faces. The peak offers scrambling sections that require careful footwork and hand use to navigate safely.
The mountain has carried its Gaelic name for centuries, reflecting the enduring presence of Scottish Highland language in this region. This linguistic connection ties the physical landscape to the cultural identity of the Highlands.
