Beinn Eibhinn, the 'delightful mountain', is the most westerly of the chain of Munros strung between Loch Ericht and Glen Spean. Its summit ridge curls round a small corrie holding Lochan a' Charra Mhòir, where snow often lingers well into spring. There are two cairns along the top: the bigger one sits on the west top, but the smaller cairn 170 m to the east marks ground that's slightly higher.
