A miniature landscape of grassy cones and little lochans tucked above Uig on Skye, formed by an old landslip and topped by the basalt tower locals call Castle Ewen. It’s a curious place to explore on foot. There’s only a tiny car park, and please resist adding to the stone spirals people leave, since they’re not any kind of local tradition. Skye is reached by the road bridge at Kyle of Lochalsh.
