Bidein a' Choire Sheasgaich, Remote mountain summit in Northwest Highland, Scotland.
The mountain features a steep summit cone at 945 meters elevation, with three ridges converging at a craggy northeast face near Loch Monar.
The mountain name translates from Scottish Gaelic as 'peak of the barren corrie', reflecting the traditional grazing patterns of Highland cattle in the region.
Scottish mountaineers recognize this peak as part of the Munros classification system, making it a destination for experienced climbers seeking Highland summits.
The shortest path starts at Achnashellach in Glen Carron, requiring river crossing and extensive navigation skills through remote Highland terrain.
The mountain stands between Loch Monar and Bearneas, composed of metamorphosed sedimentary sandstone from the Glenfinnan Group of the Loch Ness Supergroup.
