Leum Uilleim, Mountain summit in Lochaber, Scotland
Leum Uilleim is a mountain summit in Lochaber standing at 909 meters, offering views across Rannoch Moor and toward Ben Nevis in the distance. The surrounding terrain consists of open moorland with rocky slopes and distant mountain ranges.
The mountain takes its name from Scottish Gaelic, meaning William's Leap, a traditional designation that has endured through generations. The surrounding region has long been part of Highland Scotland's historical landscape.
The mountain carries a name rooted in local folklore and Scottish Gaelic tradition. Visitors can sense this linguistic identity throughout the surrounding Highland landscape today.
Access is primarily from Corrour Station, one of Britain's most remote railway stations, so plan your journey carefully in advance. Visitors should prepare for harsh weather and bring appropriate hiking gear.
The summit is marked by a cairn, but a separate rock formation lies to the west that has long drawn attention. This geological feature reflects the mountain's complex geological past.
