An Gearanach

Located north of Kinlochleven in Lochaber, Highland Council Area, Am Gearanch is one of four peaks collectively known as the 'Ring of Steall' which forms a horseshoe around Coire a'Mhail.

Its summit at 982m (3222 feet) is located on a short narrow ridge, projecting in a northerly direction from Stob Coire a'Chairn. The northern flank of the peak falls steeply down to Glen Nevis. The name An Gearanach is derived from the Gaelic for "the complainer".
