After
spending
most
of
the
day
at
the
Eilean
Donan
Castle
we
felt
a
bit
like
walking
and
looked
for
some
trails
on
the
way
back
to
the
Isle
of
Skye.
Found
this
Parkland
here
on
Google
Maps
and
stopped
by.
And
what
a
wonderful
suprise
that
was.
You
can
access
it
from
the
A87,
just
before
crossing
to
the
Isle
of
Skye.
There's
a
gate
to
keep
the
wildlife
in,
but
you
can
open
(and
please
also
close)
it
yourself.
Don't
be
fooled
if
you
see
the
closed
gates,
you
still
can
go
in.
It's
a
very
short
drive
to
one
of
the
two
public
and
free
parking
lots.
We
chose
the
more
quiet
one
to
the
west.
Only
one
other
car
on
that
late
afternoon.
From
here
you
can
choose
several
nice
trails
-
some
easier
to
spot
and
some
are
harder
to
see.
Leading
to
the
west
and
towards
the
water.
Did
that
trail
for
a
bit
and
then
turned
back,
got
a
bit
too
muddy
and
wet.
But
nice
and
quiet.
Lovely
landscape.
And
not
a
soul
in
sight.
The
walked
up
to
the
viewpoint.
A
good
numbers
of
picnic
tables
and
BBQ
grills.
Some
couples
and
families
were
here,
enjoying
the
view
and
cooking
some
dinner
on
the
BBQ.
But
still
plenty
of
space
left.
Then
we
did
two
more
trails,
one
to
the
northern
end
of
the
Parkland
and
one
leading
closer
to
town
in
the
east.
Really
lovely
walks
-
some
trails
are
narrow
though.
Be
prepared
if
you
wear
shorts
-
you'll
end
up
with
some
(painless)
scratches.
Our
Bulldog
had
fun
as
well.
All
the
trails
are
pretty
easy
to
walk
on.
The
whole
area
pretty
flat.
A
really
nice
suprise
this
parkland
here.
And
the
views
from
top
are
wonderful.
Still
suprising
that
only
so
little
visitors
seem
to
come
here.
It's
great
for
walks,
picnics.
Families
and
dog-walkers.
A
great
spot!
