Beinn Ruigh Choinnich is a hill which overlooks the port of Lochboisdale on the east coast of the island of South Uist in Scotland. Its name is sometimes given in English as Ben Kenneth, although a literal translation would be King Kenneth's Hill. The origin of the name is unknown. The hill is 275 m in height and can be climbed quite easily.
Every year on the first Sunday in August, a race is held where competitors run from Lochboisdale pier to the top of Beinn Ruigh Choinnich and back to the pier.
