Beinn Fhada
(Ben Attow)

Beinn Fhada (also known as Ben Attow) rises to a height of 1032m (3386 feet) to the north of the Five Sisters of Kintail, Skye and Lochalsh district, Highland Council Area. Its name is derived from the Gaelic for "long hill" which is appropriate since it stretches a distance of 5 miles (8 km), a distance equivalent to the length of the Five Sisters.
