Submarilyns Register

Submarilyns are hills that are close to qualifying as Marilyns and include several demoted Marilyns. The most prominent hills are Tom a' Choinnich and Cliffe Hill, both with 149.8m drop. The least prominent is Monadh Mor, which has 139.8m drop. The definition is proportional, so lower hills require greater prominence. All the Submarilyns are listed in the revised Marilyns book, apart from Sgorr an Tarmachain, which was added in August 2025 after a GNSS survey.
