Badandun Hill rises above the forests of Glen Isla and Glen Finlet. Its slopes are a mix of heather and grass, and the Cateran Trail passes around its southern slopes. A lonely trig point marks the broad summit.
From Glen Isla, a track signed for Glen Prosen climbs gradually past forestry and onto the hill’s shoulders. The track continues towards the summit ridge, finishing at the trig point on top.
