Beinn a' Chaorainn

Located amongst the Cairngorm Mountains on the border of Aberdeenshire and Moray, to the south of Glen Avon, this cone-shaped peak rises to a height of 1083m (3553 feet). Qualifying as a Munro, it is connected to Beinn Bhreac, 3 miles (5 km) to the south, by a vast medium level plateau originally called Moine Bhealaidh but now referred to as Yalla Moss. Derived from the Gaelic, its name means "hill of the rowan".
