Eididh nan Clach Geala is usually translated as 'web of the white stones'. Its top is a bouldery crest split by a grassy bank, with the highest point a rock beside the cairn. The hill falls steeply to Lochan a' Chnapaich but slopes more gently on its other sides, and looking north-west the view reaches the mountains of Assynt and the Summer Isles.
