About Aonach Beag

Aonach Beag is a mountain. Location: Highland, Scotland. Elevation: 1,234 m.

From Wikipedia

Aonach Beag is a mountain in the Scottish Highlands. It is located about 3 km east of Ben Nevis on the north side of Glen Nevis, near the town of Fort William. Apart from Ben Nevis, Aonach Beag is the highest peak in the British Isles outside the Cairngorm mountains in eastern Scotland. Aonach Beag is linked to its close neighbour to the north, Aonach Mòr, by a high saddle or bealach. The name Aonach Beag (small ridge) might imply that this mountain is smaller than Aonach Mòr (big ridge).
