Highlands

United Kingdom

The untamed wilderness of the Highlands is ideal walking territory – wooded glens, a rugged coastline, dramatic peaks, majestic lochs and misty isles. The spectacular scenery is best washed down with a wee dram from one of the region’s fine distilleries. If you’re looking for a taste of the Highlands, browse tips on how best to explore it.

Ardtoe Beach

Posted by Longrigg 25 May 2007

Also known as Monster Midge beach because of a huge midge painted on a rock on the road to the beach. Lovely collection of little bays so that even in mid summer you can often have your own private beach with views to Rum and Eigg.

Drive through Acharacle, turn left at the church, drive through Kentra and keep going to the end of the road. 50p in the letter box in the shed gets you parking all day.
