Stuc an Lochain means 'peak of the little lake', after Lochan nan Cat, which lies in a large corrie below the summit. It stands near the head of Glen Lyon, rising above the south shore of Loch an Daimh, and the usual way up climbs from the east end of that loch over Sron Chona Choirein. A cairn marks the top, with the highest point an embedded rock just beside it.
