Scottish Paradise: Unlock the hidden beauty of the Isle of Skye

The Isle of Skye, located in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, is known as the British paradise. It is a magical place far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and retaining original natural beauty. Stepping onto this land, you feel like you are in a paradise, with scenery everywhere. The beauty of Sky Island lies in its variety and mystery. In the early morning, when the first ray of sunshine shines on the sea, the golden waves and the mist-shrouded mountain peaks in the distance complement each other, which is so beautiful that it is intoxicating. Hiking to the Old Man's Rock, although the journey is a bit rugged, when you stand on the top of the mountain, overlooking the clouds at your feet and the sea in the distance, the shock and sense of accomplishment are beyond words. The clarity and tranquility of the Fairy Pond is like a mirror on Sky Island, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds and surrounding mountains, making people feel relaxed and happy. 1. Transportation: Since the train cannot reach Sky Island directly, it is recommended to take a bus from Edinburgh or Glasgow to Kyle of Lochalsh, and then transfer to the bus to Portree, the capital of Sky Island. Self-driving is also a good option, but you need to pay attention to the road conditions and parking conditions on the island. 2. Accommodation: Portree Town is the most prosperous town on Sky Island, with many accommodation options, ranging from luxury hotels to youth hostels. Advance booking is recommended, especially during peak season. 3. Recommended attractions: Old Man's Rock, Fairy Pool, Nestor Point Lighthouse, Kilt Rock and Cliff Falls are all attractions not to be missed. If you have enough time, you can choose to explore Quiraing and other natural scenery on foot. 4. Wear and equipment: The weather on Sky Island is changeable, so it is recommended to bring windproof and waterproof jackets and comfortable hiking shoes. Whether it’s the magnificence and mystery of nature or the fun and challenge of hiking, it’s all fascinating and you must experience it yourself! #NovemberGood Places 2024 #usj #sunway
