Blà Bheinn

LocationSkye - An t-Eilean Sgitheanach, UK

Blà Bheinn or Blàbheinn, also known as Blaven, is a mountain on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. It is usually regarded as an outlier of the Black Cuillin range. It is a Munro with a height of 929 metres. North of the summit is the ridge of Clach Glas, which leads to the peaks of Garbh-bheinn and Sgùrr nan Each. It is mainly composed of gabbro, a rock with excellent grip for mountaineers and scramblers.

The name Blà Bheinn is thought to mean "blue mountain", from a combination of Norse and Gaelic. Whereas blå in Modern Norwegian means "blue", the Old Norse word blá could, however, also refer to the colours blue-black and black.
