Beinn Chabhair heads up the Crianlarich Munros near the start of Glen Falloch. It is a fantastic little hill nestled away behind other hills making it only really visible from further up the glen. The hill has some brilliant features including the Beinn Glas waterfall and incidentally the Beinn Glas burn itself following it right to the source. Beinn Chabhair’s north western summit ridge is a fantastic place to be, there are a whole heap of scrambling opportunities and a chance to see Lochan a' Chaisteil a superb little lochan where you can grab your lunch. Beinn Chabhair is typical of the southern highlands hills with a grassy lower slopes leading to craggy outcrops for the last couple hundred metres of climbing. Beinn Chabhair is usually climbed on its own but there is no reason you cannot combine it with some of the other Crianlarich Hills to make a longer day out as they are all connected by a series of cols and bealachs. For most people the walk up (and down) starts right at the door to the Drovers Inn a fantastic little pub with a lot of history behind it. A visit here is a must!
