Mullach an Rathain
(Liathach)

Located northeast of Torridon, in the Ross and Cromarty district of Highland Council, Mullach an Rathain rises to a height of 1023m (3356 feet) and is located on the 5 mile (8 km) ridge of Liathach, which is composed of eight tops. Composed of sandstone, its name originates from Gaelic and can be translated as "summit of the row of pinnacles", which is appropriate since the southern flank contains numerous pinnacles.
