    To Rua Reidh Lighthouse - a lovely tour with a bicycle or walk.
    In absolute beautiful landscape!
    Near the Lighthouse is a rough coastline - worth a visit too.

    Rua Reidh Lighthouse, near Gairloch in Wester Ross, stands at the entrance to Loch Ewe, at one of the most dramatic and remote locations on the north-west coast of Scotland, with breath-taking views across the Minch to the Isle of Skye, the Shiant Isles and the Outer Hebrides.
