Tiorga Beag

Perched on the remote Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, this 590m Dodd rises above moorland terrain characteristic of the island's interior. The summit offers wide views across peat-scarred landscapes toward the Atlantic, with Harris visible to the south on clear days. A modest climb by mainland standards, but exposed to fierce westerly winds.

• •The name derives from Scottish Gaelic, with 'Tiorga' possibly linked to 'tiora' meaning dry or parched, and 'Beag' meaning small – an apt description for this modest hill rising from Lewis's wet moorland interior.
• •At grid reference NB061121, the summit lies in one of Britain's most remote walking landscapes, far from any classified road and requiring commitment to reach across trackless peat bog and heather.
• •The hill's classification as a Dodd (a summit between 500-599 metres in the Scottish Highlands and Islands) places it among the lower tier of serious Scottish hills, yet its island location makes it harder won than many higher mainland peaks.
