Doune Hill is a mountain in Scotland that stands 734 meters (about 2,408 feet) tall. It's part of the Grampian Mountains, which are a big mountain range in Scotland. You can find Doune Hill close to the pretty village of Luss. This village is in an area called Argyll and Bute, and the mountain is west of the famous Loch Lomond.

Doune Hill is special because it's the highest point in the Luss Hills. These hills are like a smaller group of mountains connected to the larger Grampian Mountains. The mountain is also right on the edge of the beautiful Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. Because it has a long, grassy top, it's a popular spot for people who enjoy hiking and exploring the hills.
