Meall Glas
Meall Glas is a mountain situated in the southern highlands of Scotland. It stands on the northern border of the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, 8.5 kilometres north east of Crianlarich. == Overview == Meall Glas has Munro status with a height of . It is the highest point of the high rolling uplands between Glen Lochay and Glen Dochart, an area lacking distinctive mountainous character.〔"The Southern Highlands" Page 165 Gives description of area.〕 Another Munro, Sgiath Chuil, lies 2 km to the east; the Corbett Beinn nan Imirean is 2 km to the south west. The three hills can be climbed together in the same walk. Meall Glas is overshadowed by the more impressive mountains around Crianlarich. Its name, which translates from the Gaelic as “Greenish-grey hill” suggests its topographic character. It was probably named by the inhabitants of Glen Lochay to which it shows its more impressive northern outline, with the summit ridge seen as a curving hollow.〔"The Magic of the Munros" Page 35 Gives details of name and translation.〕 The hill is not well seen from Glen Dochart to the south, from where it is usually climbed, being observed as merely the top of rising moorland.
