Walks Isle of Skye: including Raasay: 9 (Hallewell Pocket Walks Guides) - Softcover

Rewalked and updated in 2016, this guide covers the islands of Skye and Raasay. The mountains on Skye are justly famous and whilst this guide doesn't include the serious mountain routes it does feature climbs up some of the lower hills as well as dramatic coastal walking on the two islands. The 31 walks featured range from three quarters of a mile to 10 miles (1.2-16km) and includes the dramatic route through the astonishing rock formations of the Quiraing, the classic glen walk from Sligachan to Glen Brittle in the shade of the Cuillin ridge; Neist Point, the Fairy Pools and the climb up Dùn Caan on Raasay as well as gentler paths around the islands. This guide is part of a popular series of A6 pocket walking guides which describe routes which are suitable for walkers of all abilities and to suit all tastes. Route descriptions are accompanied by 2-colour sketch maps. The guides are illustrated with line illustrations, and will provide walkers with a good introduction to what the area covered has to offer.
