Fairy Pools

About

A managed walk from Glen Brittle to a series of pools and waterfalls on the River Brittle below the Cuillin. The lower pools are reached by a constructed path, while longer route options continue into rougher country. This is one of Skye's most pressured attractions, so arrival information matters as much as the scenery. The official car park has toilets, a one-way system and designated large-vehicle space, with a maximum vehicle length of eight metres.
