Description
After a short moorland stretch leading up to an escarpment the walk comes abruptly to the top of a band of columnar basalt cliffs. Despite its intimidating appearance there is a way down and on out to the headland. The return is initially by the same route and then back along the shore.
Access Info
Follow the main Trotternish loop road (A855) north from either Staffin or Uig until its northernmost point. The walk starts from the track along the west side of Loch Cleat
Additional Info
The descent through the cliffs is steep and may not be suitable for all walkers.
More Info
More information is available in the OS Pathfinder guide 3 - Skye and the North West Highlands.
