The title of this highlight should give it away 😂 I would not recommend it but unfortunately it can’t be avoided if you want to experience the beautiful views from the ridge top.

View of the Quiraing

Highlight • Gorge

Looking down, you can see the amazing rock formations of the Quiraing and the paths that intersect them. Be careful as there are very sudden drops.

Their is a cairn to indicate different route options - the actual summit is a bit further away from the cliff and comes with a proper trig point.
