After a delicious breakfast, head out with your guide for a day of hiking. Your guide will suggest options based on the conditions that day, and how much of a challenge you’re looking for.

Depart Kilcamb Lodge this morning and make your way to the small fishing village of Mallaig. From here, you’ll catch a ferry to Armadale on Skye. Enjoy a hike on the island after you arrive, making your way along the coast and past the ruins of two villages abandoned during the Highland Clearances.

Feeling rested, head to Elgol – a tiny hamlet scattered along the western cliffs of the Strathaird peninsula. From a small jetty, board the charming Bella Jane and sail over Loch Scavaig into the very heart of the Black Cuillin. As the lovely first mate provides some fascinating history about the surrounding islands, look for sleepy seals lounging on the warm rocks. Upon reaching the shore, leave the boat to explore Loch Coruisk, also known as the Cauldron of the Waters, a deep dark loch that stretches like a shadow below the impressive volcanic peaks. Choose to walk around the loch or climb the rugged mountain of Sgurr na Stri – which is considered by many to offer one of the wildest and most spectacular views in Scotland.

With your guide, choose a hike that suits you – perhaps head out onto the alpine plateau of the Cairngorms Mountain range and bag a sought-after Munro. Or choose to explore the Caledonian pine forest which is the oldest forest in Scotland and the last of the woodland that once covered the whole of the UK. Roam heather-covered glens and alongside jewel-like lochs for the perfect immersion into the ancient landscape.
