An Coileachan, 'the little cock', is the most easterly Munro of the Fannichs, at the end of the range's main ridge. Its top has a well-built cairn, though the true high point is a flat rock a few metres to the north-west. Steep, craggy ground falls to the north-east, while gentler grass slopes run south-west, and the most direct way up is a pathless climb from Loch Fannich.
