Brief description

The gateway to Skye, a busy thoroughfare to a tourist hotspot, Kyle of Lochalsh has a charm of its own. An interesting history of various modes of transport and stunning views across to Skye, especially from The Plock (accessible). Gavin Maxwell (author) made his home here and the Brightwater Visitor Centre on Skye pays tribute to him.
