Sgaraman nam Fiadh North Top

Rising above the remote Monadhliath plateau near Newtonmore, this high Tump offers a quiet, pathless alternative to the busier Munros nearby. The terrain is characterized by rolling heather and peat hags, leading to a broad summit that provides an expansive sense of isolation and far-reaching views across the central Grampians.

• •The name is Gaelic in origin, with 'nam Fiadh' meaning 'of the deer,' reflecting the historical use of these high-level plateaus as traditional stalking grounds.
• •It is located on the wild ridge north of the Corrieyairack Pass, acting as a secondary northern high point to the main 854m summit of Sgaraman nam Fiadh.
• •From the summit, the view south-west opens up towards the massive, craggy profile of the Creag Meagaidh massif across the hidden upper reaches of the River Spey.
• •On a landscape this vast and rounded, the distinction between a 'Top' and a boggy dip is often a matter of debate for everyone except the local red deer.
