Sgurr a' Gharg Gharaidh Far South Top

Rising to 681 metres in the rugged terrain east of Kyle of Lochalsh, this minor summit offers a quieter alternative to the more famous peaks of Kintail. As a Far South Top, it provides a distinctive perspective along the undulating ridge of Sgurr a' Gharg Gharaidh, overlooking the remote glens of the western Grampians.

• •The name is derived from the Scottish Gaelic Sgùrr a' Gharg Ghàraidh, which translates as the 'Peak of the Rough Wall', likely a reference to the craggy, tiered nature of the surrounding slopes.
• •While often overlooked in favour of the nearby Munros, the summit provides an earned view across the waters of Loch Alsh toward the distinctive profile of the Cuillin on the Isle of Skye.
• •Its status as a 'Far South Top' means you will likely spend more time reciting the full name in your head than it actually takes to cross the modest summit plateau.
