Sgurr Mòr
Cromartyshire
Range: Fannichs
Summit: 3,642 feet NH203718

Sgurr Mòr (Gaelic for “Big Peak”) is the highest mountain of Cromartyshire, and the highest of the nine Munros in the range known as the Fannichs.

The Fannicks spread between Loch Fannich and the A835 Ullapool road, which is a remote area, barely inhabited. Notwithstanding their grand height, these nine Munroes, usually climbed in groups or occasionally in a single hike, are mostly gentle sloped and fairly accessible from either of the loch or the road. If approached from Loch Fannich, a bicycle or permission to drive on the private road would be helpful.
