What is recorded here
Rubha nan Caorach is shown as a headland on the public map of Na h-Eileanan Siar. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Rubha nan Caorach is a headland composed primarily of basaltic rock, formed during the Palaeogene period through volcanic activity associated with the North Atlantic Igneous Province. Its notable columnar jointing and coastal erosion features make it a distinctive and geologically significant coastal landform in the western Scottish isles.
