The walk to Scoraig is definitely worth doing. I have been a couple of times, once by the footpath and once by boat.
I have mixed feelings about Scoraig. In the 1960s it was repopulated and set up as a form of commune and had the ethos of a self-sufficient island community. This has changed quite radically over the past few years. Many people have a boat and keep a car on the mainland on the opposite shore of Little Loch Broom, for use when they pop across to go to the supermarket. I had a plumber recently who lived in Scoraig and kept his van at the road end at Badrallach, which he reached by taking his motorbike along the footpath. Many are connected to the internet and have generators to power their computers, and other electrical items, although wind power is also used.
This is not meant as a criticism, and I am in no position to be critical of anyone's lifestyle choice. I just think it is a slight anachronism. I would be interested to hear other peoples views on this, perhaps it should have a thread of it's own.
Anyway Mountainlove, to go back to your original question: Yes, it is well worth taking the walk (but watch out for motorbikes!). Don't think that when you get to the first houses you are there, it is still quite a long way until you get to the main part of the village. It is a very interesting, and very beautiful place, and worth making the effort.
I will also be up there in June
, but not after then until September
