Binnein Mòr is the highest of the Mamores, a neat pyramid standing just north of the main ridge above the empty upper reaches of Glen Nevis. The name means 'big pinnacle'. A short, narrow ridge with a few rocky steps links it to the rest of the range, and from the cairn there's a view across to Ben Nevis. Being remote, it sees fewer walkers than its height might suggest.
