Beinn a' Ghlo is much steeper and stonier than the other hills in this area and is a complex group of hills with lots of tops and corries. From The Cairngorms is is seen as a domed summit surrounded by symmetrical tops across lots of empty glens.
Beinn a' Ghlò has such a diversity of flora that it has been declared a Site of Special Scientific Interest and Special Area of Conservation. Beinn a' Ghlo is surely one of the most mysterious & beautiful group of hills in this area or even the eastern part of the highland.
