Category:Mountains and hills of Islay
Mountains and hills of Islay refer to any named elevation, up to that of Beinn Bheigeir at 491 metres (1,611 ft). For the classifications and related terminology that apply, see the articles. The terrain of nearly all is grassland well below the tree line and the summer snow line. Nearly all are accessible by hiking or recreational vehicles. Off the trail, dense thickets, moors and bogs impede progress, while scarps, burns and rocks add a risk of falling. The steep and wave-battered coasts often preclude landing except at ports and beaches. The names are nearly all Scottish Gaelic except for preferred English transliterations. The leading Gaelic terms are beinn, English "mount," and cnoc, English "hill." Etymologically the name is often from Old Norse or is totally unknown. Situated on Islay, as on all the Hebrides, is an ancient system of hill-forts, now no more than archaeological sites. The names of these hills typically are preceded by Gaelic dun, "hill-fort." They have their own category.
