Meall nan Samhna Far West Top photo

Knobbly ridge.

East of Sgiath Chuil, the ground remains high and grassy There are many small knolls, mostly unnamed, on a poorly defined ridge. The underlying schists break down into fertile soils rich in calcium and magnesium, and the hill supports a rich plant life. Here the higher ground is leading towards one of the named hills, Meall na Samhna.
