Clisham, Mountain summit in Outer Hebrides, Scotland
Clisham rises to 799 meters above sea level, featuring steep rocky cliffs and multiple hiking paths leading to its prominent peak.
The mountain received its name from the Scottish Gaelic 'An Cliseam', reflecting the long-standing linguistic heritage of the Outer Hebrides region.
Local residents maintain strong connections to Clisham through traditional hill walking activities and its status as the archipelago's highest elevation point.
The ascent begins at the designated parking area along A859 road, requiring approximately three hours to reach the summit through marked trails.
From the mountain's peak, visitors observe both the North Atlantic Ocean and the Minch strait, with views extending across multiple Hebridean islands.
