Ladhar Bheinn (pronounced larven[2] is the highest mountain in the Knoydart region of the Highlands of Scotland. It is the most westerly Munro on the Scottish mainland.
The mountain may be climbed from Barrisdale to the northeast or Inverie to the south. From Barrisdale the mountain may be climbed as part of circuit of Coire Dhorrcaill; this route involves a certain amount of scrambling, particularly on the section immediately north of the subsidiary summit of Stob a Chearcaill.
Ladhar Bheinn is a wonderful craggy mountain on the remote Knoydart Penninsula. It is a large and complex mountain with many ridges and corries.
The summit ridge runs NW to SE where it intersects, at an altitude of 849m, a much longer ridge from Sgurr Coire Choinnichean in the SW to Creag Bheithe in the NE.
Ladhar Bheinn can be access via this ridge by ascending to the bealach, Mam Suidheig, and traversing the narrow Aonach Sgoilte ridge to reach the main ridge.
From the summit a craggy ridge runs NE, the Druim a Choire Odhair which offers an ascent route from the path to Barrisdale into Coire Dhorrcail.
Further major ridges NE turning NNW to Mullach Li (668m) and NW to An Diollaid. A descent from the lochan on the NW ridge SW on grassy slopes leads to paths in Gleann na Guiserein.
