Sron na h-Iolaire

Rising to 516 metres above the western shore of Loch Fyne in Argyll, this Dodd offers a straightforward ascent through forestry and rougher ground. The summit, whose name translates as 'promontory of the eagle', provides views across the loch to the Cowal hills and south toward Arran on clear days.

• •The name Sron na h-Iolaire derives from Scottish Gaelic, meaning 'promontory of the eagle' or 'nose of the eagle', suggesting the summit may once have been a known nesting or hunting ground for these birds of prey.
• •The hill stands on the western shore of Loch Fyne, Scotland's longest sea loch, which extends inland for over 40 miles from the Sound of Bute.
• •As a Dodd, this summit forms part of a classification that includes Scottish hills between 2000 and 2999 feet with at least 30 metres of prominence, making it a modest but distinct peak in its immediate landscape.
