Sports and leisure activities Portree

Safari means observation, not slaughter of magnificent wild animals, of course! Loch Coruisk, the Cuillin, Trotternish and the Quiraing: all of them are to be discovered during guided hiking days, to discover the most beautiful landscapes of the island. Departures are from Portree and the small size of the groups (4-6) is a plus. The objective of your guides is simple: to take you off the beaten track and make you discover a secret and confidential Island of Skye. It is possible to make photo excursions with specialized photographers.

Whatever your age, your level or your desire for activities, Skye Adventure offers a wide range of possibilities: treks on the coast, in the gorges, in the mountains, on the Cuillin, climbing, canyoning, coastering, skills and orientation courses, as well as sessions adapted to families. Visit their website to choose and book. The activities are obviously done in complete safety and according to the level of the group, with qualified instructors and equipment (helmets, combishort, life jackets, etc.) provided to the participants.

Old Man of Storr is an iconic walk on the Isle of Skye. The trail, starting from the parking lot, takes you to the top of these strange geological shapes. Beware, it is not a loop and you will have to retrace your steps. It is necessary to count approximately 2h30 for this hike. The panorama that the monolith of the Old Man Storr offers you is breathtaking. It is recommended to do it in the morning to avoid the crowd that attracts this little gem. According to the legend, this 54 m high menhir would be the thumb of the giant that would protrude from the earth.
