Itinerary description
Amazing trail to the Old Man of Storr. This is an iconic hike in Isle of Skye, with incredible views and scenery specially in a sunny day.
The hike is of moderate difficulty because it’s mostly uphill but is has no technical difficulties. The trail is clearly defined and in many sections is a stair of rocks.
When you get close to the Old Man rock you can take the trail to the left, which gives you a nice view and a less transited section. After we got to the summit/viewpoint, where you get amazing views, we continued a little bit more.
Lots of people in this trail but it is manageable. The paid parking at the beginning of the trail can get full.
