Glenbrittle

Travel Guide

The Fairy Pools near Glenbrittle at the foot of the Black Cuillin Mountains on the Isle of Skye in the Highlands of Scotland. Very busy attraction but oh so beautiful to see.....walk along the path beside the falls and meandering river and enjoy this stunning location. Free admission is a bonus but watch the slippery rocks and steep climb back to the car, it's a bit of a killer! Perhaps partake in a coffee from Cuillin Coffee Van in the carpark when you're done.

Glenbrittle Fairy Pools on the Isle of Skye. Stunning off the road tourist attraction. The water is so clear you can drink it! If you have the time, take some food and do a small hike to the base of the mountain range looming in the backgroud.

Area of Harrapool was lovely and quiet. There was a co-op near by which was great being in a cabin with cooking facilities.
