A cool hike along the river! Some stunning views! But almost walked past the fairy pools.

Distance: 4.2km

The Fairy Pools on the Isle of Skye in Scotland are a magical spot nestled among the stunning Black Cuillin mountains. These crystal-clear blue pools along the Burn of the Dog offer a tranquil setting for wild swimming and exploring. The walk to the pools is relatively short and easy, with a gravel path leading to the main waterfall and pools. Visitors are advised to keep an eye on the weather and wear appropriate footwear, as conditions can change quickly in this beautiful but sometimes unpredictable Highland landscape.
