Guidebook to the Skye Trail, a challenging 80-mile (128km) trek that snakes its way northsouth across the Isle of Skye. This unofficial, week-long route is ideal for backpacking, camping wild each night, but can also be walked between overnight accommodation.

Unwaymarked route on sometimes pathless terrain requires navigational skill, fitness and self-reliance, so is suitable for experienced mountain walkers
Seven daily stages of 718 miles (1129km) in length, with an optional 6-mile (11km) alternative route via the summit of Bla Bheinn, one of Skye's most spectacular Munros
Starts at Rubha Hunish at the northern tip of Skye, visits the capital Portree, follows Glen Sligachan between the Black Cuillin and Red Hills, before finishing in the south at Broadford
Highlights include the Trotternish Ridge, the Quiraing, the Old Man of Storr, the mighty Cuillin and the abandoned village of Boreraig
Clear route descriptions with full 1:50,000 OS mapping and elevation profiles for hillier stages
Includes details of refreshments, public transport and accommodation, notes on geology, history, plants and wildlife, and a glossary of Gaelic place names
