This stunningly beautiful walk follows a superb old grassy footpath as far as a monument to the celebrated Gaelic poet Sorley MacLean, overlooking Hallaig - the subject of his most famous poem. The walk continues to explore the ruins of the village of Hallaig; this shorter section is much rougher with no clear path and can be omitted if preferred, reducing the route to a Grade 1 walk.

Terrain

Waymarked walk on good path to the monument. Beyond this reaching the ruins of Hallaig means much rougher going with no clear path.

Public Transport

None to start.

Start

End of public road at North Fearns. Open start point in Google Maps for directions.
