Mullach nan Coirean

Located at the west end of the Mamore ridge, south of Fort William in Highland region, Mullach nan Coriean rises to a height of 939m (3080 feet). The name Mullach nan Coirean is derived from the Gaelic for "summit of the corries". This is clearly apt, since the summit is on a plateau, below which there are a number of corries which are composed of red granite.
