Beinn an Fhogharaidh
Beinn an Fhogharaidh is a mountain ridge in the southern Scottish Highlands. It stands near the village of Aberfoyle in the Stirling council area. The ridge rises about six kilometres west-northwest of Aberfoyle and sixteen kilometres south by west of Callander. It lies within the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. The highest point is about one mile due south of Ben Venue. The mountain forms a long, treeless ridge branching off the southern end of the Ben Venue ridge. It runs roughly northwest to southeast above the northern shores of Loch Ard. The ridge has a double summit, with the highest point to the east. The west top is about 500 metres away and separated by a shallow col. The lower half of the mountainside is covered in forest, part of the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park. A track to Ledard Farm branches off the B829 road along the north shore of Loch Ard. It climbs the southeast spur of Beinn an Fhogharaidh below Creag Innich. Just over halfway up, the track divides and the right-hand branch runs just below the crest of the main ridge. It passes just below the summit and crosses the west top before continuing to the crags of Stob an Lochain.
