Description
WikipediaShalloch on Minnoch (Scottish Gaelic: Càrn Seilich) is a hill in the Range of the Awful Hand, a sub-range of the Galloway Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. It is frequently climbed from Stinchar bridge to the north, or as part of a full traverse of the range. It was likely originally called Bellachgy Hill (from Scottish Gaelic: Beinn a' Bhealaich Gaoithe), before taking the name Cairnshalloch (Càrn Seilich) after the Shalloch estate. The mountain then took, in English, the name of the farm itself: Shalloch on Minnoch.
