Glen Brittle

Climbing most of the Cuillins mountains on the Isle of Skye isn't easy, but here we find a gentle hike of about 16 km with great views. These mountains are considered the most difficult peaks in the UK, but this, gentler than Sgurr Alsadair or the Black Cuillin, is a good option for hikers who are not interested in climbing or mountaineering and want to enjoy something a little bit easier. It's too long for young children, though.

At the end you'll reach Loch Brittle, which you might be disappointed to learn is not a lake, but rather a bay. I can't understand how it has the name Loch ...
