Walking and Climbing on Skye and the mainland
Whether you simply enjoy relaxing walks amidst stunning scenery, or prefer Munro Bagging (climbing peaks over 3000ft for the un-initiated!), then you are in the right place! Here are just a small selection of the walking and climbing treasures in the area surrounding the hotel:
Kintail Forest and the Fall of Glomach
Balmacara Estate (National Trust) and Lochalsh Woodland Garden
Glen Brittle and Loch Eynort Forestry Walk
Applecross peninsula and Kishorn
Beinn Eighe National Nature Reserve
The Hotel has numerous walking guides to the area and several Ordnance Survey maps for Skye, Lochalsh and Wester Ross, to help when planning routes.
If you intend to do some serious walking or climbing, but don’t necessarily have the experience or confidence yourself, then we would recommend hiring a professional Guide, using the links on the right.
