The island is dominated by three steep-sided conical quartzite mountains on its western side – the Paps of Jura which rise to 785 metres (2,575 ft). There are three major peaks:

• Beinn an Òir  is the highest peak, standing at 2,575 feet (785 m), and is  thereby   a Corbett.
• Beinn Shiantaidh  stands at 2,477 feet (755 m) high.
• Beinn a' Chaolais  is the lowest of the Paps, reaching 2,408 feet (734 m).

The Paps dominate the landscape in the region and can be seen from the Mull of Kintyre and, on a clear day, Skye and Northern Ireland. The route of the annual Isle of Jura Fell Race includes all three Paps and four other hills.
