WALK THIS WAY 🚶🚶

The Rhenigidale circular walk is one of the most spectacular walks in Harris, but it is also challenging, requiring good footwear and a head for heights! In return it offers some of the best panoramic views in the island, and a sense of being alone with nature.

➡️Route Time - approx 6 hours
➡️Distance -12 miles
➡️Grade - Moderate to Difficult
