About Skelbo Car Park

The ideal place for a family walk to enjoy the view, look at the carvings and soak up the pleasant woodland atmosphere - or enjoy a picnic beside the pond.

How to get there:

Skelbo Car Park is in Skelbo which is part of Sutherland.
The car park lies a few yards down Skelbo Street, which is a minor road off the A9 about three miles north of Dornoch and five miles north of the Dornoch Bridge.
The car park is clearly signed from both the A9 and the Dornoch to Loch Fleet minor road.
Dornoch is the nearest town or village.

Extremely pleasant walk through the trees with lots of carvings to search for. Ideal walk for adults and youngsters......enjoyed the carvings very much myself. Looking forward to going back in the Spring when the flowers are out.
