The Buck of Cabrach, commonly called simply The Buck, is a mountain on the border of Aberdeenshire with Banffshire. The whole massif here is known as "Calbrach", but the hamlet of Calbrack lies a little off to the northwest.
Many a climb will begin at a secondary peak, known as Meikle Carn, at NJ420254, which rises to 1,526 feet by the B9002 road at Elrick. The Buck itself is to the south, its summit at NJ412234. From the Buck, running to the south the ridge marks the county border across a number of lesser tops until Craig an Funan (2,073 feet).
