Walking

There are a wide variety of low, mid and high level walks which can be coastal, inland , mountainous, woodland,etc. You can find a walk to suit you by visiting the Walk Highlands website – a wonderful free resource – and we have thoroughly enjoyed trying them out.

Cycling

We enjoy cycling our tandem, although we don’t seem to have as much time as we would like for it. We can store your bikes in the dry overnight for you. If you need to wash them down at the end of the day we can provide you with a hose and brush. There are organised tours you can join if you are not too sure about doing them alone – they can fully supported.

Boat trips

Want someone else to take the strain, but would like to experience the varied bird and sea life, then there are many  boat trips to be had. Along with the many sea birds including cormorant, shag, gannet and sea eagle, you may also spot minkie whale, basking shark, seal, porpoise and otter. Of course this is wildlife and nothing can be guaranteed – although with Calum’s Seal Trips in Plockton you only pay when you’ve seen a seal!
