Sròn a' Choire Ghairbh, Mountain summit in Highland Council, Scotland

Sròn a' Choire Ghairbh rises to 937 meters on the northern side of Loch Lochy, featuring steep flanks and multiple corries across its terrain.

The mountain's Gaelic name, meaning 'The Nose of the Rough Corrie', reflects the traditional Scottish naming practices that describe geographical characteristics of the land.

Scottish mountaineers regularly document their ascents of this Munro in a summit register, stored in a wooden box at the peak since the 1980s.

Climbers can start their ascent from the car park near Eas Cia-aig waterfall, following marked paths through Gleann Cia-aig to reach the summit.

The mountain contains Coire Glas, where a 1.5 GW pumped-storage hydroelectricity project will connect the natural corrie basin with Loch Lochy below.

GPS coordinates: 57.00785,-4.92871
