78 KM
Grade B
To paddle around the islands of Raasay and Rona, is a deservedly popular journey. It offers two contrasting islands with a common theme of unrivalled wildlife and unique views across to the Quiraing of Skye. Being sheltered from the westerly winds by Skye this area often provides better weather and lighter winds in which to enjoy the journey.
