The Cobbler (Scottish Gaelic: Beinn Artair) is a mountain 884 metres (2,900 ft) tall near the head of Loch Long in Scotland. Although only a Corbett, it is "one of the most impressive summits in the Southern Highlands",[1] and is also the most important place for rock climbing in the Southern Highlands. Many maps use the name Ben Arthur (an anglicisation of the Gaelic), but the name The Cobbler is used more.[1]
