Ben Dearg is one of the official sub-2000s in Scotland. It is typically reached as part of the Skye Trail. It is possible though to do it as a day hike either coming up from Borve or using one of the trails up the escarpments from the road. The prettiest option for a day hike is probably by starting at the Storr car park and doing it together with The Storr top. This option gives you a wonderful experience of the Storr landslide and the escarpment and comes with excellent views all along the way. It also saves you from the long boggy sections if you are trying to do it coming up from Portree or Borve.
