Over seven days, you'll cross dramatic, often pathless terrain, led by a qualified Mountain Leader and supported with logistics, food, and accommodation throughout. Key Details Group size: 1–8 people Duration: 8 nights / 7 days hiking Meeting point: Inverness train station or airport Start location: Rubha Hunish, Isle of Skye Finish location: Broadford, Isle of Skye Itinerary Saturday – Arrival and Introductory Hike After collection in Inverness, the group travels west to Skye and enjoys a short hike to Rubha Hunish, the island’s most northerly point. This first night will be spent wild camping by the coast, with an initial taste of the landscape and solitude that define the route. Sunday – Rubha Hunish to Flodigarry (16km) The trail begins along dramatic sea cliffs and coastal paths, a rugged and scenic introduction to Skye’s eastern edge. With no clear paths and occasional scrambles, this section sets the tone for the challenge ahead. Wild camping awaits near Flodigarry. Monday – Flodigarry to The Storr (22km) One of the most demanding yet visually rewarding days, this stage climbs through the Quiraing before continuing along the length of the Trotternish Ridge. Expect narrow ridgelines, dramatic views, and tough underfoot conditions. Camp is set in a wild spot beneath the Storr. Tuesday – Trotternish Ridge to Portree (17km) An easier stage, descending from the ridgeline and following scenic cliff-top tracks toward the capital town of Portree. There’s time to restock and relax, with a night in a local hostel and the first chance for a hot shower and a meal in a pub. Wednesday – Rest Day and Optional Excursions You can choose to walk stage 4 or take it easy, travelling by minibus to visit highlights like the Fairy Pools, Talisker Distillery, or viewpoints under the Black Cuillin. The day ends at a bunkhouse beside a sea loch and next to a favourite local pub for dinner. Thursday – Cuillin Foothills to Elgol (14km) Back on the trail, this stage passes under the jagged Cuillin mountains. The route may include a night of beach camping or continue along a dramatic cliff-side path to Elgol. Views back across the water and into the mountains are unforgettable. Friday – Elgol to Torrin (17km) This more relaxed day winds toward Torrin, offering views over the Sleat peninsula and small isles.
