📍 Dunscaith Castle​⁠
⁠
Perched atop rugged shore rocks and dramatic cliffs, Dunscaith Castle was once the stronghold of the Clan MacDonald of Sleat. Its ruins now stand as a testament to Skye's rich history. Surrounded by wild landscapes and abundant wildlife, it’s a spot that perfectly captures the untouched beauty of the Isle of Skye.​⁠
⁠
You get to visit this castle on our 5-Day Volunteer Adventure from Inverness.
