Sail Gharbh and Sail Gorm
Sàil Gharbh (Rough Heel)and Sàil Ghorm (Blue Heel) are two of the three prominent Corbett peaks on Quinag, a magnificent, wild mountain massif located in the Assynt region of Sutherland in the North-West Scottish Highlands.
Sàil Gharbh: At 808 meters (2,651 feet), this is the highest point on the Quinag massif. It features a steep, rock-strewn ridge leading to a summit cairn that provides panoramic 360-degree views of the surrounding peaks, including Suilven, Canisp, and Ben More Assynt.
Sàil Ghorm: Standing at 776 meters (2,546 feet), this is the most northerly of the three Quinag peaks. Its broad, grassy plateau is accessed via a ridge path that offers dramatic drops and spectacular coastal views—particularly toward the Kylesku Bridge.
