Sgurr nan Ceathreamhnan

Located north of Loch Cluanie, on the border of the Inverness and Ross and Cromarty districts of Highland Council, Sgurr nan Ceathreamhnan has two principal summits; the East Top which rises to 1151m (3776 feet) and the West Top at 1143m / 3750 feet. Its name originates from Gaelic and means "peak of the quarters". This is a complex mountain with numerous corries, tops and peaks, together with ridges extending in several directions, not least 2½ miles (4 km) to the northeast to the neighbouring Munro Mullach na Dheiragain, which is very much part of the same massif.
