Tag: Fairy Pools

I posted earlier a few photos of the bravery of Scott and Liam in climbing up the various elements of the Fairy Pools, which was a sequence of waterfalls. The rest of us didn’t make that brave climb on rocks through the middle of the waterfalls in case we fell in, we just walked alongside. Richard and Andrew were hoping that Scott fell in, but I didn’t tell anyone that. I think it was Richard and Andrew hoping that, but perhaps it was me.

Known locally as the Lòin nan Sìthichean, these waterfalls and caves are apparently popular with those who like wild swimming and diving, but I can imagine that the water isn’t exactly tropical in temperature even if it is in appearance. And so, lots more photos, including a photo of a couple having wedding photos. A lovely background, but a bit of a traipse in wedding finery to get to them.

More on the Fairy Pools on the Isle of Skye in another post, but these are the photos from a few years ago of the bravery of Liam and Scott. The four sensible members of the group took a more pleasurable walk along them, without the risk of falling into the water. At one point, Liam struggled and some random member of the public said “he’s going to fall in”, but somehow Liam managed to stay dry. We were secretly impressed.
