Overview of your Strathcarron tour:

Starting from the railway station at Strathcarron the road hugs the shore of Loch Carron. At Kyle of Lochcalsh we cross over to Skye via the Skye Bridge (opened in 1995 replacing the ferry that ran from 1600). We then travel to the town of Portree (an Anglicised version of the Gaelic "Port-an-Righ" meaning "King's Port" and relates to a visit by King James V in 1540). After stopping in Portree we continue to Trotternish passing the Old Man of Storr, a 165 foot rock pinnacle, and the 200 foot Kilt Rock waterfall. We continue up the coast to Staffin, then take the little mountain road via the Quiraing to Uig. We then head to Dunvegan Castle - the seat of the Chiefs of Clan MacLeod for over eight centuries. After leaving Dunvegan we will travel on to the Talisker Distillery on the shores of Loch Harport (if time permits). We then return to the mainland via the Skye Bridge in order for you to catch the return train from Strathcarron Station.
