The Isle of Skye isn’t the only Scottish island with a Cuillin ridge. The extraordinary island of Rum has its own alternative version – and Askival is its crown, the highest and most satisfying peak of the Rum Cuillin.

At 812m this is the highest point on Rum and therefor the highest peak in the Rum Cuillin. It's a brilliant, scramble pyramidal peak standing at the head of the Cuillin ridge and offering awesome views across the island and across to Eigg. It's a tough expedition of a run but very satisfying especially if you camp or stay at the bothy and make it a two day adventure.
