An Sgùman

An Sgùman is a Graham Top of Munro standing in the Fannaichs range of the Northwest Highlands. The mountain reaches its modest summit at grid reference NH134695, where the land falls away in all directions. It belongs to the special lists that classify Scottish peaks by height and prominence. The hill is one of many whose exact position and name have been checked and recorded by hill societies. These organisations maintain the Database of British and Irish Hills, ensuring every Graham Top of Munro is measured and verified. The effort to keep the original Gaelic name alive continues, and any local knowledge is welcomed. Visitors reach the slopes by following paths that climb through heather and rock. The view from the top takes in the surrounding ridges and lochans of the Fannaichs. On clear days the eye travels north to the Cromarty Firth and east towards Ben Wyvis. The summit itself is a small plateau marked by a modest cairn.
