Your Itinerary
Glen Shiel
Our first stop is in the mountain pass of Glenshiel. A historic battle was fought here, not as you might expect between warring Highland Clans but between the British Red Coats and the Spanish who were in support of the Jacobite Rising of 1719.
Today, it's one of the most beautiful mountain passes in Scotland.
Eilean Donan Castle
Located at the intersection of 3 sea lochs on a small tidal island is the most photographed castle in Scotland. It's interiors are as captivating as it is seen from outside. The castle is a popular location for films, TV, advertisements, fashion shoots and music videos.
Portree
We'll arrive in a small quaint town of Portree for lunch. Streets are lined with a variety of quirky local shops. A picturesque stretch of pastel colored houses by the harbour is a favorite photo spot for visitors and locals alike.
The Old Man of Storr
There are many folklore stories about the Old Man of Storr.
One version points out to a giant who lived on the Trotternish Ridge. When he was laid to rest upon his death, his thumb—the “Old Man" remained partially above ground.
Today, it is an iconic landmark arguably the most popular hike on Skye.
Quiraing
When the scenery gradually turns to be more surreal along the drive, thats when you know that you are close to your next destination - The Quirang. It was formed at the end of the ice age when a bed of solidified lava about 300m thick broke away and began to slip into the sea creating a 'land-before-time' landscape.
It is a photographers, film makers and nature seekers haven. Like many other locations in Skye - The Quirang has been featured in blockbuster movies. Here's to many more.
Kilt Rock
What are the odds of seeing sea-cliffs that resembles pleats and even simulate colors of traditional Scottish kilt - about 180ft high. The Kilt Rock is another geological wonder with traces of dinosaur footprints. The landscape makes some unusual music of its own when strong winds blow described by many as hauntingly beautiful.
Fairy Pools
Depending on road accessibility, this is an Option to visit. It is great for avid hikers. There's a 2.4km walk on gravel, peat, grass, heather and rocky path from the parking lot to the stunning waterfall it is famous for.
