A few minutes drive from Glenelg Inn up a little glen, the brochs are something to behold. One can imagine a thriving community living in these hills thousands of years ago. There are a few information boards that describe how the structures functioned as homes for the Picts and their livestock. Well worth a stop.

Balmacara Estate is owned and managed by the National Trust for Scotland as a crofting estate. The Estate is around 2,500 hectares and extends from Kirkton to the edge of Kyle in the south and encompasses Plockton in the north. There are around twenty four kilometres of footpath on the estate passing through woodlands, over heathland taking the walker through crofting meadows, along the coast or to scenic lochs with a chance of spotting the likes of red squirrels, otters, dragonflies, birds of prey and a wealth of flora. There are also two holiday cottages by Lochalsh Woodland Walks and Beatons Cottage by Uig in north Skye that can be booked through the National Trust for Scotland. A diverse and beautiful corner of the Highlands to explore.

After a very stormy day we took our dog for a walk in the shelter of the woods. It was about 1830 and wet and windy so no other people about. It was sheltered and peaceful. There were lots if small waterfalls after all the rain so it was very beautiful and interesting. There is s lovely garden to visit and lovely views. Well worth a stop if you're in the area.

Regardless of how many times we visit Scotland and cross this bridge it never loses its brilliance. Even though the ferry crossing to Skye is a pleasant experience I find the bridge crossing so much nicer. Because of the virus situation, If you cross on the ferry you're not allowed out of your car when on the ferry unless you're a foot passenger. When crossing the bridge I always think of the local people that fought a long hard fight to get the toll charges removed.
