Lairig lanachain is a 2,388-foot (728 m) bealach between the Munro summits of Beinn a' Chochuill and Beinn Eunaich. The two are usually linked in one high-level hike, so the bealach is commonly crossed by Munro baggers and the like. The views from this ridgeline across to the many peaks of the Cruachan massif are mightily impressive.
