The Isle of Skye is also a paradise for nature lovers and hikers, offering spectacular views and landscapes. Some of the most popular spots are:
Old Man of Storr: This is a striking rock formation that rises above the surrounding hills. It is one of the most iconic landmarks on the island and a favourite among photographers.

The Quiraing: This is a stunning geological feature that was formed by a massive landslip. It consists of a series of pinnacles, cliffs, and plateaus that create a surreal landscape. You can walk along the edge of the escarpment and enjoy the amazing scenery.
The Fairy Pools: These are a series of crystal-clear pools and waterfalls that flow from the Cuillin Mountains. They are known for their turquoise colour and magical atmosphere. You can dip your toes in the water or even swim if you are feeling brave.
