Wednesday, April 22nd, 2020

Experience the climb up the Cuillin Ridge on the Isle of Skye.

Ready for a rock climbing adventure as you ascend the steep cliffs and scree slopes of the Cuillin Ridge in the Cuillin Hills – but the view – encompassing the Isle of Skye, out west across the Highlands and the Small Isles to the south – from the summit is well worth the effort.

The beauty of the landscape is awe-inspiring. The ridge has been designated as a national scenic area – one of 40 such areas in Scotland.
