17 KM
Grade B
Dunvegan Head boasts Skye’s highest sea cliffs; at over 300 metres they rise out of the Minch and are a sight not to be missed. In the right conditions this headland is accessible to many paddlers and the dramatic location rivals any of Scotland’s less accessible mighty headlands. The trip provides an incredible day out and will leave you with a sore neck from looking up at the imposing cliffs and eagles soaring amongst them.
