Stuchd an Lochain is a mountain in Perthshire, which reaches a height of 3,150 feet at its summit, and so it qualifies as a Munro.
This mountain stands at the western end of Glen Lyon and forms the southern side of Loch an Daimh. The summit sits above a large corrie that contains a small lochan.
Ascent
The primary route to the summit leaves from the eastern end of Loch an Daimh and climbs the ridge to the top of Sron Chona Choirein. From here the ridge turns roughly north for a short distance before turning north-west to the summit. Fit walkers can continue west for a circular walk around the loch taking in a lower mountain, Sròn a' Choire Chnapanich, and another Munro, Meall Buidhe.
