Kilt Rock and Waterfall
Loch Coruisk
to many people the very finest loch in Scotland - surrounded by shapely peaks. Accessible by boat from the village of Elgol or by walks from Sligachan long but not hard or from Elgol via Camasunary but this involves a 'bad step'MacLeod's Maidens
Skye's magnificent coast off the Dunvegan road is often forgotten in the allure of the Cuillin. The UK's highest cliffs are to be found here. The 'Maidens' are very striking sea stacks and give a target for a walk.
