Overview

We’ll begin with a gentle drive along the north shore of Loch Ness, stopping briefly at Invermoriston for a stroll by the falls and a visit to the curious Clog and Craft shop. Continuing north west from here, passing beautiful Loch Cluanie with a possible coffee stop at The Cluanie Inn, we'll pass through the majestic mountain landscape of Kintail. We can stop near the foot of the glen to take a look at the site of the Battle of Glenshiel (1719). We then head over the Ratagan pass, taking in some magnificent views of the Five Sisters of Kintail before dropping down to Glenelg. Here we will investigate the famous Glenelg Brochs, two 2,000 year old structures just past the village, before heading for the community operated ferry to take us over the sea to Skye. Returning over the Skye Bridge, we’ll go searching for Highland cattle and palm trees in Plockton!

Glen Shiel

Ratagan Pass viewpoint

The Mam Ratagan, or Bealach Ratagain is a pass from Shiel Bridge on the A87 over the hill to the village and surrounding communities of Glenelg. It is a popular tourist route, linking with the Glenelg - Kylerhea Ferry service to the Isle of Skye, and providing a scenic and interesting alternative to the Skye Bridge. However, what few people perhaps realise is that this is the old road to Skye. The road was first built by Major Caulfeild as a military road to the barracks at Glenelg, but followed an older route used by drovers. The views to the Five sisters of Kintail are unrivalled

Brochs at Glenelg - Dun Telve & Dun Troddan

Admire a pair of 2,000-year-old tall broch towers set in a beautiful glen.Dun Telve and Dun Troddan are both outstanding brochs, in the beautiful valley of Gleann Beag. They are unusually close together for brochs, standing just 500m apart.Their excellent state of preservation attracted attention from an early date, but they are also noteworthy for their design, scale and quality of build. Dun Telve still stands to more than 10m in places. Dun Troddan is shorter, at 7.6m, but is better preserved.

Skye Ferry

18 GLORIOUS MILES await you. Beginning at the turnoff to Shiel Bridge in Kintail to a main road outside of Broadford on Skye you can take a journey to Skye and adventure on the LAST SURVIVING MANUALLY OPERATED TURNTABLE CAR FERRY in the world. The ferry boat, the MV Glenachulish, is the last manually operated turntable ferry in the world. She is ideally suited for this unique crossing to Skye and is an important part of our heritage. Although there has been a car ferry service crossing the Kylerhea straits since 1934, the very same crossing has been in almost constant use for hundreds of years, as this is the closest point on the Mainland to the Isle of Skye.
