Official information
Meall Buidhe is a ridge located in Glen Lyon, known for its wide moorlands and relatively easy ascent from Loch an Dàmh. It is a popular Munro for hikers, offering scenic views and the option to combine climbs with nearby peaks.
From the Wikipedia article
Meall Buidhe is a Munro situated in the southern highlands of Scotland. It forms the northern side of Loch an Daimh and is often climbed in conjunction with Stuchd an Lochain. The normal route climbs north from the eastern end of the loch until easier ground is reached. The route angles east and then north once the ridge is gained. Strong walkers can continue round the loch and take in a Corbett, Sron a' Choire Chnapanich, and the aforementioned Stuchd an Lochain.
