Creag Mhor a' Bhinnein

Rising above the remote Ardgour peninsula, this rugged Tump serves as a significant eastern shoulder to the higher Sgùrr Dhòmhnuill. The terrain is characteristically rough, defined by steep heathery slopes and prominent crags that reward those seeking a quieter, more untamed corner of the North West Highlands.

• •The name is Gaelic, where 'Creag Mhòr' translates as 'Big Crag' and 'a' Bhinnein' refers to a peak or pinnacle, accurately describing its sharp, rocky profile when viewed from the surrounding glens.
• •It sits on the long eastern ridge of Sgùrr Dhòmhnuill; many hillwalkers traverse this summit as part of a demanding, remote horseshoe approach starting from Glen Hurich.
• •The summit provides a spectacular, close-up perspective of the steep eastern face of Sgùrr Dhòmhnuill, alongside views south across the winding waters of Loch Sunart toward the mountains of Mull.
• •At 609 metres (1998ft), the hill misses out on Graham status by a single, frustratingly absent foot, ensuring it remains blissfully ignored by most mainstream peak-baggers.
