Sgùrr nan Conbhairean (Scottish Gaelic for 'peak of the dog-men')[2] is a mountain in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland, lying north of Loch Cluanie and south of Glen Affric. A dome-shaped mountain with a height of 1,109 metres (3,638 ft), it is part of a group of three Munros, the other two being A' Chràlaig and Mullach Fraoch-choire.[3]
Its Gaelic name likely refers to the handlers of hunting dogs.[2]
