We decided to venture up the east coast of Skye towards The Quiraing. The Quiraing is a spectacular landslip on the eastern face of Meall na Suiramach, the northernmost summit of the Trotternish Ridge on the Isle of Skye. The whole of the Trotternish Ridge escarpment was formed by a great series of landslips; the Quiraing is the only part of the slip still moving, the road at its base near Flodigarry requires repairs each year.  First of all we went down into Staffin Bay where the view looking across the bay towards the Trotternish Ridge and the Quiraing were very good.

We then drove up the small single track road to the top of the Ridge.

After spending some time here we headed across the island with the intention of getting to Neist Point for a sunset.  On the way we couldn’t resist stopping to get this shot of Lamb Hotpot – Skye Style!
