Background
Description
Sgùrr Thuilm reaches a height of 963 m and is classified as a Munro. The mountain also qualifies as a Marilyn with a significant prominence of 614 m. It is positioned at the head of Glen Finnan and is invariably climbed along with the neighbouring Munro of Sgùrr nan Coireachan to which it is joined by a rocky ridge. It lies just outwith the Rough Bounds of Knoydart but shares many of the characteristics of the mountains of that region. The name translates from the Gaelic as Rocky peak of the hillock.
