Karranæjumnán (Frellandic pronunciation: ['kʰarːanˌaiːjʏ:mˌnan]) is a mountain in Frelland, Scovern. At 2,118 m (6,949 ft), its peak is the tallest point in Scovern. It is known for its ski tourism and its relative ease to climb, with regular hiking trips to the summit in the summer months.
It was first discovered and named by Ghaillish marauders during the Marauder Age, and its Frellandic name is comprised of Old Ghaillish loanwords. It was first summited in 1841 by Lars Thomassen and Per Mølgaard.
