Walk Overview
This short walk on the Isle of Skye visits one of the most magical places in Scotland – the stunning waterfalls of the Fairy Pools.

Set near Glen Brittle with the island’s fearsome Black Cuillin mountains as a backdrop, the Fairy Pools are a hotspot for tourists who swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Allt a’ Choire Ghreadaidh on hot days.
