Druim nan Ramh

Rising to 500 metres on the Isle of Skye, this Dodd and Tump occupies rugged terrain in the island's remote interior. The name translates from Scottish Gaelic as 'ridge of the oars', likely describing the hill's distinctive shape when viewed from certain angles. The ascent crosses typical Skye ground with rocky outcrops and boggy patches.

• •The name 'Druim nan Ramh' derives from Scottish Gaelic, meaning 'ridge of the oars', suggesting that the hill's profile resembles a row of oar blades when seen from a distance, or perhaps references an old boat-carrying route across this elevated ground.
• •At exactly 500 metres, this hill just scrapes into Dodd classification, which requires peaks between 500 and 599 metres with at least 30 metres of prominence.
• •The grid reference NG480217 places this hill in Skye's interior, an area characterised by rough, pathless terrain that sees far fewer visitors than the island's famous Cuillin ridges to the south.
