"Sgùrr nan Eugallt is the highest of a well defined group of mountains that lie south of Loch Hourn, stretching from Barrisdale to Loch Quoich." My second attempt at climbing this hill was a success, but the low cloud at the top was a little disappointing as I had hoped to take in the apparently 'magnificent' views from the summit. I suppose it did add to the drama though? This panorama taken from the summit looking west, shows Knoydart (including Glen Barrisdale) minus the tops, centre and left plus Loch Hourn on the right with just a hint of the Isle of Skye in the murky distance.

The other photos have been geo-tagged as on or around the summit. For less busy mountains, it can be a little hit and miss.

- Data: Database of British and Irish Hills v18.2
- Maps: We use OS mapping for England, Scotland, Wales, and the Isle of Man. Sadly, Channel Islands, Northern (OSNI) and Southern Ireland (OSI) mapping isn't available online, so we use Openstreetmap.
