About the trip
Skye is a place of drama: basalt cliffs, landslip towers and long green ridges above the sea, with the Cuillin rising behind. The Skye Trail links its finest sights on foot.
Walks of 12 to 18 kilometres follow coastal paths and open moorland. The weather changes fast, so we pack for everything and make the most of the sunny spells.
What's included
- Four nights in a guesthouse in Portree
- Breakfasts and dinners
- Daily transport to trailheads
- Finn as your guide
- Transfer from Inverness
