Beinn na Caillich is a Graham of 732.1 m in Highland. Among the Grahams, only Sgurr na Coinnich and Beinn Mhor (Argyll and Bute) have more drop.

Its drop of 696 m is 95% of its height: the col linking it to higher ground is only 36 m above sea level. All four of its nearest neighbours lie to the west, so it stands at the eastern edge of its group. It shares its height of 732.1 m with Blackstairs Mountain. On the Grahams height ladder it sits between Sgurr a' Gharaidh (732.3 m) and Glas Bheinn (Highland, NN171918) (731.5 m). Its nearest higher summit, Clach Glas (786 m, 6.8 km west), is a listed top not profiled here. The highest point is recorded as rock, not a cairn.
