The Isle of Skye is the largest and most northerly isle of the Inner Hebrides. The mountain range of the Cuillins and the sharp pinnacles of the Quiraing form the most dramatic and dreamlike landscape in Scotland. Walkers, hikers and climbers will find a challange here surrounded by spectacular scenery.
The Isle of Skye can be reached by the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry out of Mallaig to Armadale or by crossing the Skye Bridge from Loch Alsh. The town of Portree is the largest community on the island and sailors will find a small protected harbour in Loch Portree from the Sound of Raasay.
Skye came to be dominated by two great clans, the MacDonalds and the MacLeods, and the rivalry between the two led to bloodshed and violence across the island for several centuries. You can visit the Clan Donald Center and Dunvegan Castle, the ancestral home of Clan MacLeod.
