Mountain biking
The Sligachan Path is considered one of the most spectacular in the UK. You'll gently climb to Loch Na Creitheach and ride north along the western shores before hitting the quiet valley of Skye. You'll then climb toward more lochs before reaching a pass where you can enjoy a steady descent looking down the River Sligachan. This is a fun and technical ride and some experience is recommended, there are rocks and boulders, big and small, and slippery gravel too.
