5/5)About Kylerhea Otter Hide
The Otter Hide carpark is set in a spectacular location with fantastic views across the Kylerhea narrows to Glenelg and the Kintail mountains.
On a nice day, this is a beautiful place for a picnic. From here there is a short walk along the forest road to the viewing hide. There is also a short loop walk through a very attractive area behind the hide.
Not always visible - look out for otters on the shoreline from the hide. However, on most days you should be able to see both grey and common seals and a variety of sea birds.
