Mountains dominate the landscape of North Harris and the parish of Uig in Lewis and south east Lewis. The Clisham, the highest hill in the Outer Hebrides, at almost 800 metres and Mealaisbhal in Uig is the highest summit in Lewis.
Heading south, to the east of North Uist there the rugged hills of North and South Lee and Eaval, and are in sharp contrast to the relatively flat landscape to the west. Indeed this follows in Benbecula and South Uist, where the hills are on the east side. Benbecula has one hill, Reuval and to the east of South Uist, mountains run right along the island to the west, with the highest hill, Ben Mhor. In Barra the highest hill in Heaval.
On a clear day, with fine weather, the views from these peaks are magnificent and a sight to behold.
