Beinn Bharrain (721 m) is a mountain on the Isle of Arran, Scotland, located in the far northwest of the Island.

Isle of Arran the largest island in the Firth of Clyde, Scotland

Arran or the Isle of Arran is an island off the coast of Scotland, in the United Kingdom. It is the largest island in the Firth of Clyde and the seventh largest Scottish island, at 432 square kilometres (167 sq mi). Historically part of Buteshire, it is in the unitary council area of North Ayrshire. In the 2011 census it had a resident population of 4,629. Though culturally and physically similar to the Hebrides, it is separated from them by the Kintyre peninsula. Often referred to as "Scotland in Miniature", the island is divided into highland and lowland areas by the Highland Boundary Fault and has been described as a "geologist's paradise".

Despite being less frequently visited than its eastern neighbours, it still provides fine views from the top. The entire hill is known as Beinn Bharrain, with 'Mullach Buidhe' the highest of its summits. [2]
