Sgòr Gaoith (Template:Langx, 'windy peak')[1] is a mountain peak in the far western massif of the Cairngorms in the Scottish Highlands. It is Script error: No such module "convert". high, and is the highest point on a long north-south ridge. The ridge is separated from the Braeriach massif to the east by Gleann Eanaich and Loch Eanaich.
The name 'Sgòr Gaoith' also refers to the mountain as a whole. The other summits of the mountain are Sgòran Dubh Mòr (1,111 m high) to the north, and Càrn Bàn Mòr (1052 m high) to the south. The eastern side of Sgòr Gaoith is girded by steep cliffs which plunge down to Loch Eanaich; the western side is composed of heather slopes and a number of shallow corries.
The two most commonly used routes up Sgòr Gaoith start from Glen Feshie to the west. One ascends the mountain via a track starting in the pine woods, leading up into Coire Ruadh and thence to the summit by a number of indistinct paths. The other starts further south down Glen Feshie from a car-park just before the farm of Achlean and reaches the summit via the lower peak of Carn Ban Mòr (1,052 m).
