An Sgùrr is a hill in the parish of Lochcarron in western Ross-shire, occupying the broad peninsula between Loch Carron and Loch Kishorn. It has the appearance of a rough knoll, with small crags ringing the summit, particularly on the western side.

The hill may be climbed from a number of locations. The A896 road passes roughly a mile to the north, whilst a forestry track from south of Lochcarron allows access to the south-east. The path between Achintraid and Reraig passes to the south west side of An Sgùrr; the summit may be reached from Bealach that separates An Sgùrr from Bad a' Chreamha, which lies a mile or so east of this path.
