Graham

Quick Facts

This is the height of the mountain above sea level. However, on the climb, it is the ascent that matters, i.e. the sum of all the uphill parts of the route.

Altitude

632 m (2073 ft)

This is the standard notation used on Ordnance Survey Landranger maps.

Each reference consists of two letters identifying a 100,000 metre square block then three digits defining the Easting and finally the three digits defining the Northing with reference to the South West corner of the block.

NN166712 is the grid reference for the summit of Ben Nevis. Where you are given the map number ( For Ben Nevis = 41) it is acceptable to omit the two initial letters e.g. 166712. (Instructions on how to read the references are given on the OS maps).

Routes

Mountain names are usually in Gaelic, the native language of the Scottish Highlands, or have been derived from the old Scots and Norse languages. We give the most commonly accepted meaning, but accept that some of these are disputed.

Description

Tullich Hill is situated to the N of Glen Douglas and along with Beinn Bhreac is sandwiched between Loch Long to the W and Loch Lomond to the E.

It lies close enough to Beinn Bhreac to allow the two to be climbed in one outing.

General Considerations

Temperature decreases by 1degree C for every 100m of ascent.

Wind usually increases with altitude.

Visibility can change markedly with cloud level.

River/Stream levels can increase markedly in one day.

Tullich Hill this way! The "peak" in view is actually just one of a number of false summits.

A tough wee hill. Steep and with enough false summits to frustrate even the most patient of walkers however, the beautiful views on offer at the top are worth the hard work.
