Wandelgids Isle of Skye | Pocket Mountains

The Isle of Skye (or Ant-Eilean Sgitheanach in its native Gaelic tongue) occupies an almost mythical place in the minds of many Scots. Romantic castles, magnificent sea-scapes, the alpine peaks of the Cuillin Ridge, marching pipe bands, scattered white crofters' cottages and a bloody history; the island has all these and more. This book features 40 moderate walks that take in much of this celebrated landscape, but reveal hidden gems too. In spite of its popularity Skye is still rich in undiscovered treasures, from coastal caves and arches, ruined villages cruelly cleared of their inhabitants, to fossilised dinosaur footprints and a rich array of wildlife. Written by Skye residents Paul and Helen Webster, these walks will reveal both the wild and gentler sides of this dramatic landscape. Plaatsen in het boekje An Aird, An Corran, Ardnish, Armadale, Arnish, Bearreraig Bay, Bioda Buidhe, Boreraig, The Braes, Broadford, Brochel Castle, Brothers' Point, Burma Road, Caisteal Maol, Calum…
