Stob Bàn, Mountain summit in Highland, Scotland

Stob Bàn rises to 977 meters in elevation, featuring three distinct ridges and a conical shape covered in light-colored schist scree.

The mountain stands within the ancient Celtic region of Dalriada, where characteristic Dalradian rocks formed through significant geological processes millions of years ago.

The name Stob Bàn originates from Scottish Gaelic language, translating to White Peak, referring to the mountain's distinctive light-colored rock composition.

Climbers access the summit from Corrie Choille farm in Glen Spean, following a path through challenging terrain and rocky outcrops.

The mountain contains an unusual formation called the Giants Staircase, consisting of 200 meters of quartzite slabs between the col and Lairig Leacach.
