Cnoc an t-Sabhail is a hill of 1,247 feet in Ross-shire. It is in Easter Ross, standing above Strath Rory. The summit is unmarked. On the southern slope above the glen are the earthworks of a Bronze Age hill fort known as Cnoc an Duin.[1][2]

The name of the hill means 'Hill of the Barn', and there is an identically named hill, climbing to 1,056 feet, a little to the north, within the Morangie Forest.
