More On Skye Trail Trip

Next week we will be off to Scotland to walk the  Skye Trail.  The trail is 128Km unofficial long distance route. It will go though some of the toughest terrain but with stunning landscapes.   We will be walking though the Trotternish Ridge, old man of Storr. Onto Portree and then passing below the dark jagged cliffs of the Cullins towards Lock Coruisk.

We will be wild camping on route, with one hostel and one proper campsite. We can stock up with camp food once back in Portree as we will have the car parked up there.
We are planning about 10 miles a day but we can push on more if we don’t find any  wild camping spot.

This will be the longest camping trip we have done, but we will not be far from roads if we need to pull out. Plus we have different routes that  we can choose if the weather turns bad.
