    Tips

    February 25, 2024

    Loch Slapin is a sea loch on the south-west coast of the Isle of Skye, Scotland. It is about 6 km long and has a width of 500 m to 1 km. It is surrounded by the peaks of the Cuillin Mountains, such as Bla Bheinn, Beinn na Caillich, and Beinn na Cro. It is a scenic and peaceful place, but also has a sad history of being the site of one of the Highland Clearances in 1852, when the villagers of Suisnish were evicted by their landlord to make way for sheep farming. You can still see the ruins of their houses and the old ridges of their fields on the headland of Suisnish.
