Pristine beaches, hidden coves and untouched nature sum up South Uist, the second-largest island of the Outer Hebrides. With a population of less than 2,000, you will find plenty of secluded spots where you can enjoy the spectacular scenery.
Interestingly, the island is the only place in the UK where prehistoric mummies were found. It is also one of the last remaining strongholds of the Gaelic language.

Enjoy the tranquility of the island! The section leads you through the green, past many small lakes. The beach is perfect for spending the night in the tent.
