Sgor Gaoith



Great mountain (1118 m). Translated it means windy hill

Sgor Gaoith is the highest point on the cliffs overlooking Loch Einich, therefore the whole east flank of this mountain is steep and rocky. From the broad summit plateau north linking to Sgoran Dubh Mor (1111m) a ridge runs north west leading to tracks through the forests to Feshiebridge. Beyond Sgoran Dubh Mor a long narrow ridge continues north and a shorter ridge northwest, both with moderate slopes. To the west of the summit the slopes moderate to steep,and this is the shortest ascent route. To the south the broad ridge descends gently to 1000m then broadens to loin the Moine Mhor where paths and tracks lead to Glen Feshie.
