The Ochil Hills (/ˈoʊxəl/; Scottish Gaelic: Monadh Ochail – from a Celtic word root compare Old Welsh uchel meaning ‘high’) is a range of hills in Scotland north of the Forth valley bordered by the towns of Stirling Alloa Kinross and Perth. The only major roads crossing the hills pass through Glen Devon/Glen Eagles and Glenfarg the latter now largely replaced except for local traffic by the M90 Edinburgh-Perth motorway cutting through the eastern foothills.
