Tips

The Marble Line is a former railway that used to transport marble from a quarry near Broadford, a village on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. The railway was built in 1907 by Skye Marble Ltd, but it closed in 1913 due to financial difficulties. The track was later converted into a footpath that allows visitors to explore the Strath Suardal valley and the abandoned villages of Boreraig and Suisnish. The Marble Line is a scenic and accessible walk that offers views of the Red Cuillins.

This disused railway track is a nice and gentle trail with nice views at the Broadford Red Cuillins and Beinn Shuardail. You can even see Beinn Bhla in the distance.
