Sgùrr nan Each

Sgùrr nan Each is a mountain in the northwestern Highlands south of Ullapool that rises to 923 meters. Its north ridge displays distinctive rocky buttresses that define the mountain's character.

The mountain has drawn climbers since the early days of Scottish mountaineering. Recorded ascents show a continuous tradition of Highland exploration and mountain pursuits over many generations.

The Gaelic name means 'peak of the horses', a reference to the pastoral heritage of Highland communities who once grazed livestock in these hills. This naming tradition reflects how daily life and local practices shaped the way people named their surroundings.

This climb requires proper mountain gear and good navigation skills, especially on the rocky terrain. Parking areas along the A832 road provide convenient starting points for several approach routes.

From the summit area, the valley of Allt a' Choire Mhoir flows down toward Loch Fannich, surrounded by neighboring peaks of the Fannich range. This vantage point shows how the mountain sits within the larger mountain system.
