Maoile Lunndaidh is a Munro of 1,004.9 m in Highland. It barely stands apart: the summit is only 10.5 m above the col joining it to higher ground.

No other Munro has less drop. Its nearest higher summit, Creag Toll a' Choin, beats it by just 0.4 m. Of the 427 register hills in Highland, it has the smallest drop. On the Munros height ladder it sits between Carn Liath (1,006.1 m) and Beinn Fhionnlaidh (Highland) (1,004.8 m). It is a Munro but not a Marilyn: its 10.5 m of drop is short of 150 m. The key col is close by, only 0.5 km to the south-west at 994.4 m. Its nearest higher summit, Creag Toll a' Choin, is also the hill its key col leads to. The database describes the top as a blade of rock 20m sw of large cairn.
