The path to Hugh’s Castle is a rough landrover track that can get muddy, especially after rain. The walk offers stunning views of Loch Snizort and the surrounding landscape. Keep an eye out for the wooden posts with Celtic symbols that guide you along the way.
Built in the late 16th century by Hugh MacDonald, the castle was intended to assert his authority in the Trotternish region. The castle itself is a simple, rectangular tower house with thick walls and minimal openings, reflecting its defensive purpose.
