Leathad Buidhe is the highest point of the Beinn Eighe Mountain Trail in the Beinn Eighe National Nature Reserve, at 559 meters. The summit is reached via a well-marked, steep path and is marked by a cairn. Despite its relatively modest height, the viewpoint offers panoramic views of Loch Maree, Slioch, and the surrounding peaks. Leathad Buidhe marks the turning point of the marked mountain trail.

An excellent short walk that allows tourists to see Loch Maree and the surrounding hills so much better than from the road below.
