Marsco is a peak in the Red Hills on the Scottish Isle of Skye. It lies on the east of Glen Sligachan, and may be climbed from the right-of-way through the glen from Sligachan to Loch Coruisk. Alternatively, it may also be reached from Coire nam Bruadaran on the western side. Marsco has magnificent views of the main [Cuillin] ridge as well as out to sea; many walkers reckon it is perhaps the finest of all the [Grahams].
The folk group Runrig released a song called Nightfall on Marsco on the album Recovery in 1981.
