Sgorr Gorm

Rising to 503 metres above Glen Lyon in the Breadalbane region, this grassy summit lies on the northern flanks of the larger Càrn Mairg group. The ascent is typically made as part of a broader circuit of the higher Munros to the south, offering pleasant walking over mixed moorland terrain.

• •The name derives from Scottish Gaelic, with 'Sgorr' meaning a sharp or rocky peak and 'Gorm' meaning blue or green, though the summit itself is relatively rounded rather than craggy.
• •Despite sharing its second element with the much higher Càrn Gorm nearby (1,029m), this modest top is separated by over 500 metres in height, making confusion between the two unlikely on the ground.
• •The hill sits on the fringe of the Glen Lyon Horseshoe, a classic round of four Munros that draws most walkers past rather than to its summit.
