What is recorded here
Rubha nam Bràithrean is shown as a headland on the public map of Highland. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Rubha nam Bràithrean is a headland composed primarily of basalt, formed during the Palaeogene period (approximately 60–55 million years ago) as part of the North Atlantic Igneous Province. Its notable columnar jointing and coastal erosion features highlight the volcanic activity and subsequent weathering that shaped the Scottish Highlands.
