From the Wikipedia article
Corserine (Scottish Gaelic: A' Chroisrinn ) is a hill in north of the Rhinns of Kells, a sub-range of the Galloway Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. It is the highest point of the range and the second highest point in Galloway. The peak ridge goes east-west despite the Rhinns of Kells overall going north-south, so it was seen as lying 'across the Rhinns', which gave the hill its name in Gaelic. The usual route of ascent is from the car park at Forrest Lodge to the east of the hill via Loch Harrow and North Gairy Top. Forest Lodge is a short drive from the village of St. John's Town of Dalry.
