The western Highlands of Glen Shiel and Kintail and the famous Isle of Skye is where you find the Scotland of your dreams: craggy mountains and the wild sea, green islands, sky and white beaches in spectacular harmony with each other fill this inspiring and sparsely polulated landscape.
Our walks take us along old cattle drovers' paths, up and over rocky hights, past refreshing waterfalls, through wide glens, the lonely peninsula of Glenelg with its mysterious 'brochs' - ancient and well preserved towers thought to have protected local farmers during periods of siege more than 2000 years ago and several medieval castles which seem strangley civilized in this expanse of natural wilderness.
Accommodation: during your holiday you will stay in two different locations: the scattered settlement of Shiel Bridge at the foot of the Kintail mountains and Sligachan in the heart of the Isle of Skye. There are a good selection of accommodation in both places ranging from good quality Highland hotels to Bed & Breakfast guest houses and hostels.
Your walking group has the personable size of no more than 12 persons and is accompanied throughout by an experienced and knowledgeable guide.
Most importantly, we want to offer you the best experience of active relaxation and enjoyment in Scotland.
