    At around 880 feet (270 m), this stretch of trail across the west flank of Beinn Tangabhal is the highest section of the Hebridean Way long-distance trail. On a good day, the hike provides exceptional views across Vatersay. Posts point the way where paths are less distinct, though you'll need to navigate carefully.
