Sgùrr na Sgine

Sgùrr na Sgine rises to 946 meters above sea level, featuring steep rocky slopes and a distinctive north ridge known as Concorde Ridge.

The mountain received its name from the Gaelic language, translating to Peak of the Knife due to its sharp eastern rock wall formation.

Scottish mountaineers regularly undertake expeditions to this peak, often combining it with nearby Munro summits for extended hiking adventures.

Access begins at a layby on the A87 highway near Achnangart Farm, with the ascent following grassy slopes toward the Faochag subsidiary peak.

The mountain contains two separate high points, including a North West Top at 942 meters and the main summit 300 meters to the southeast.
