Mountain Description
To the north of Loch Leven lies a long mountain with two distinct tops Mam na Gualainn to the W and Beinn na Caillich (764m) to the E. The S slopes of this mountain are craggy and steep, whereas the N slopes are less so and meet the slopes of opposing mountains in a high glen (330m max), now part of the West Highland Way. From this high glen paths lead up onto either end facilitating a traverse.
