An Sgùrr, Mountain summit in Isle of Eigg, Scotland

An Sgùrr rises 393 meters above sea level on the Isle of Eigg, featuring steep paths and rocky terrain along its distinctive ridge formation.

The mountain stands as a geological remnant from ancient volcanic activity, forming part of the Inner Hebrides archipelago's natural landscape development over millennia.
