About Mullach nan Coirean SE Top

The parent mountain, whose Gaelic name means 'summit of the corries' and which is also called Sgùrr a' Chaorainn, 'peak of the rowan', reaches 939 metres. To its east a bealach at 846 metres links it to the neighbouring Munro Stob Bàn, and the pair are often climbed together from Glen Nevis.

Classifications and ratings are the local authority's own and can be coarse — this is a lead, not a guarantee of opening hours or that food is served to non-residents. Follow a name through to the official rating page to check, and confirm before you rely on it.

Which hill this one belongs to

Mullach nan Coirean SE Top is not counted as an independent hill in its own right. In prominence terms it belongs to Stob Ban (1,000 m) — the nearest Marilyn you can reach from this summit without first dropping below its key col, 850 m.

Grouping is by prominence alone: a summit belongs to the nearest higher Marilyn it connects to without a deeper intervening col. Over a large massif that can gather hills no one would walk in a single day, and which few would describe as parts of the same mountain — it is a measure of independence, not a suggested route.
