The Plock Kyle of Lochalsh

For those who savour a long walk with views across the estuary and a trek through forest and higher moor land I recommend two circular walks either side of the bridge. They can be done separately as short walks if pushed for time or if you are up for a more energetic walk the Plock and Kyleakin Loop can be completed in about 3 hours. Stout walking shoes or hiking boots recommended as the terrain particularly near the beach or in coastal areas can be uneven underfoot. Walking poles will aid your balance on paths with steep ascents and descents. The Plock is a small stretch of coastal area with lots of paths to explore. It's a haven for wildlife. This is the place to look for Otters. Take a stroll through the wild flower meadows or explore hidden rocky coves. The beaches are quite wild and require good footing. The Plock is a great place to explore. It is owned by the Kyle and Lochalsh Community Trust who have developed access for the benefit of locals and visitors alike. Terrain Straightforward walking; the short loop near the start is an all-abilities path; parts of the other paths are less formal and can be boggy in places.
