    Tips

    April 3, 2024

    Elgol is a picturesque fishing and crofting village on the southwestern coast of the Strathaird Peninsula of Skye. It is perhaps best known as the departure point for boat trips across Loch Scavaig to the stunning fresh water loch of Loch Coruisk, at the heart of the Black Cuillin.

      Few places in Britain boast the views that Elgol enjoys. This little hamlet on the shores of Loch Scavaig gazes across at the dramatic Black Cuillin, the UK's most formidable mountain range. From here, you can hike along the coast path to Camasunary Bay and on to the likes of Blà Bheinn and Sgùrr na Stri. Alternatively, you could take a boat trip to the darkly atmospheric Loch Coruisk, which reaches into the heart of the Cuillin range, directly beneath the towering peaks.
