The Quiraing is a mountain range on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. It known for the scenery of its rugged terrain, punctuated by outcroppings of basalt. It is at the north end of the Trotternish Ridge where many elements of the distinctive landscape have earned particular names. The Needle is a jagged 120 foot high landmark pinnacle, a remnant of landslipping. Northwest of it is The Table, a flat and swarded summit with vistas of the Torridon Hills and the mountains of Wester Ross. Southwest is the Prison, a pyramidal rocky peak which can look like a medieval keep when viewed from the right angle.
