Message from Justice & Hannah Lynn Arceri

The Fairy Glen hike in Uig, Isle of Skye is a magical adventure through a miniature landscape filled with cone-shaped hillocks, boulders, lochans, and even a basalt castle. The 1.5km circuitous walk from the car park takes about an hour or more, leading you past picturesque views of Glen Conon and up to the natural landmark called Castle Ewen. Be sure to stick to designated paths, enjoy the stunning views, and watch out for roaming livestock as you explore this enchanting spot.
