View of Knock Castle

Highlight • Historical Site

Jutting into Knock Bay, Knock Castle boasts a vantage position over the Sound of Sleat. The location has a long history of fortification right back to the iron age with a fort called Dun Thoravaig. The current Knock Castle, originally known as Caisteal Camus or Caisteal Uaine, has been abandoned since the early 17th century.

Skye Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

It is a sneaky little uphill, but the bridge is a great way to get onto and off Skye. Bike path most of the way to protect you from the campers. Views going both ways are excellent.

Old A850 Road from Kyleakin

Highlight • Structure

It is possible to walk most of this southern part of the road, but at this point, it becomes impossible due to vegetation growth. You can however cut into the foliage between the new and old road and eventually cut up a bank to the new A87.
