Kylerhea
 

Kylerhea is a fairly young, mixed conifer plantation on the slopes above the Kylerhea narrows.

This is an atmospheric place with breathtaking views and the opportunity to see a variety of coastal wildlife - including otters, seals and many sea birds.

How to get there:

Kylerhea, Glenelg, Kinloch, Kyleakin, Broardford, and Isle Of Skye are the nearest towns or villages.

Either take the summer ferry from Glenelg on the mainland over to Kylerhea. Or, from the A850 on Skye, 3 miles west of the Skye bridge, take the unclassified (and very steep) road to Kylerhea.
