Sgurr Dhòmhnuill or Sgurr Dhòmhnaill is a mountain in western Scotland. The summit lies about 10 kilometres (6 miles) northeast of Strontian. Although less than Munro-height, it is one of Britain's biggest mountains in terms of height above sea level (AMSL), since it is the highest peak on the Ardgour peninsula.[clarification needed]
