Stob Coir'an Albannaich is a mountain in Argyllshire, which reaches a height of 3,425 feet at its summit, and so it qualifies as a Munro. Its name means "Peak of the Scotsman's Corrie"
This fine mountain stands deep in Glen Etive, and beneath its northern slope a small, local road passes by down the glen. It is a large, complex mountain of many craggy outcrops and at the heights several summit ridges.
It earns its name from the wondrous corries on the northern side of the mountain but a casual traveller would not see them; only from nearby mountains can they be seen.
Ascents
Stob Coire a’ Albannaich is a rarely visited mountain, which is a pity. It is normally climbed in conjunction with Meall nan Eun, though put aside a day to do the traverse.
