Am Basteir is a Munro of 934 m in Highland. Only one Munro has less drop.
Higher ground is only 0.2 km away: Sgurr a' Fionn Choire (936 m) to the south-west. Its key col leads to Sgurr nan Gillean, not to its nearest higher summit, Sgurr a' Fionn Choire. On the Munros height ladder it sits between Meall a' Chrasgaidh (934.4 m) and Beinn Tarsuinn (Highland) (933.8 m). Bruach na Frithe stands only 0.5 km to the west. It is a Munro but not a Marilyn: its 49 m of drop is short of 150 m. The key col is close by, only 0.1 km to the south at 885 m.
