Morven (Scottish Gaelic: A' Mhòr Bheinn) is a Corbett in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
The poet, Lord Byron, who spent some of his childhood in the area, mentions the mountain in his poem, When I Roved a Young Highlander: When I rov'd a young Highlander o'er the dark heath, And climb'd thy steep summit, oh Morven of snow!
To gaze on the torrent that thunder'd beneath, Or the mist of the tempest that gather'd below; Untutor'd by science, a stranger to fear, And rude as the rocks, where my infancy grew, No feeling, save one, to my bosom was dear; Need I say, my sweet Mary, 'twas centred in you?
The hill gives its name to one of the houses at Aboyne Academy.
