Overhanging these two lakes on the south, is the branch mountain of Inch Riach, which, with Brae Riach, still further south, and belonging to the great chain, forms Glen-Ennich, a good pasturage for sheep.

To the east of Glen-Ennich, and about the centre of the parish, there is a bold pass through the mountains, named in the language of the country Larich-ruadh, or red pass.

Connected with the history of the parish is the slaughter of one of the Earls of Athole, who, fleeing before his enemies, was surprised and murdered, when taking shelter behind a large stone near the summit of Inch Riach, called to this day, in allusion to the event, Clach-Mhic-Allan, the Earl of Athole's Stone. -- Supplied on traces John Roy Stewart, one of Prince Charlie's Colonels, and a native of Kincardine in this vicinity, fled from the battle of Culloden and concealed himself for many years in the forests of Glenmora and Rothiemurchus -- descriptive Antiquities. -- The Castle of Loch-an-Eilean is the only antiquity in -- written the parish.
