Grand Tour of Scotland: Day 11: 22 August 2019 ~Exploring Isle of Skye, The Quiraing #36

The Quiraing ~ Uig

The Quiraing (Scottish Gaelic: A’ Chuith-Raing) is a landslip on the eastern face of Meall na Suiramach, the northernmost summit of the Trotternish on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. A great series of landslips formed the whole Trotternish Ridge escarpment; the Quiraing is the only part of the slip still moving – the road at its base, near Flodigarry, requires yearly repairs.

Parts of the distinctive landscape have earned particular names. The Needle is a jagged 120-foot-high (37 m) landmark pinnacle, a remnant of land slipping. Northwest of it is The Table, a flat grassy area slipped down from the summit plateau, with the Torridon Hills vistas and the Wester Ross mountains. Southwest is the Prison, a pyramidal rocky peak that can look like a medieval keep when viewed from the right angle – the ascent of this is an airy scramble.

The name Quiraing comes from Old Norse Kví Rand, which means ‘Round Fold.’ Within the fold is The Table, an elevated plateau hidden amongst the pillars. It is said that the fold was used to conceal cattle from Viking raiders.

PS. I am saving up for upcoming Landscape Photography Trips to Scotland and Namibia and a few road trips in the USA, including Route 66 and The historic Apache Trail. Also on my list are National Parks and Botanical gardens in South Africa, the UK, and the USA. 

The most important photography trip for me is to return to Scotland. I am honoring my promise to my Father to return and capture the beautiful landscapes and the elusive Puffins.  Your help to make these trips a reality would be much appreciated in today’s economy.

Grand Tour of Scotland: Day 11: 22 August 2019 ~Exploring Isle of Skye, The Quiraing #20

The Quiraing ~ Uig

The Quiraing (Scottish Gaelic: A’ Chuith-Raing) is a landslip on the eastern face of Meall na Suiramach, the northernmost summit of the Trotternish on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. A great series of landslips formed the whole Trotternish Ridge escarpment; the Quiraing is the only part of the slip still moving – the road at its base, near Flodigarry, requires yearly repairs.

Parts of the distinctive landscape have earned particular names. The Needle is a jagged 120-foot-high (37 m) landmark pinnacle, a remnant of land slipping. Northwest of it is The Table, a flat grassy area slipped down from the summit plateau, with the Torridon Hills vistas and the Wester Ross mountains. Southwest is the Prison, a pyramidal rocky peak that can look like a medieval keep when viewed from the right angle – the ascent of this is an airy scramble.

The name Quiraing comes from Old Norse Kví Rand, which means ‘Round Fold.’ Within the fold is The Table, an elevated plateau hidden amongst the pillars. It is said that the fold was used to conceal cattle from Viking raiders.

PS. I am saving up for upcoming Landscape Photography Trips to Scotland and Namibia and a few road trips in the USA, including Route 66 and The historic Apache Trail. Also on my list are National Parks and Botanical gardens in South Africa, the UK, and the USA. 

The most important photography trip for me is to return to Scotland. I am honoring my promise to my Father to return and capture the beautiful landscapes and the elusive Puffins.  Your help to make these trips a reality would be much appreciated in today’s economy.

Grand Tour of Scotland: Day 11: 22 August 2019 ~Exploring Isle of Skye, The Quiraing #04

The Quiraing ~ Uig

The Quiraing (Scottish Gaelic: A’ Chuith-Raing) is a landslip on the eastern face of Meall na Suiramach, the northernmost summit of the Trotternish on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. A great series of landslips formed the whole Trotternish Ridge escarpment; the Quiraing is the only part of the slip still moving – the road at its base, near Flodigarry, requires yearly repairs.

Parts of the distinctive landscape have earned particular names. The Needle is a jagged 120-foot-high (37 m) landmark pinnacle, a remnant of land slipping. Northwest of it is The Table, a flat grassy area slipped down from the summit plateau, with the Torridon Hills vistas and the Wester Ross mountains. Southwest is the Prison, a pyramidal rocky peak that can look like a medieval keep when viewed from the right angle – the ascent of this is an airy scramble.

The name Quiraing comes from Old Norse Kví Rand, which means ‘Round Fold.’ Within the fold is The Table, an elevated plateau hidden amongst the pillars. It is said that the fold was used to conceal cattle from Viking raiders.

PS. I am saving up for upcoming Landscape Photography Trips to Scotland and Namibia and a few road trips in the USA, including Route 66 and The historic Apache Trail. Also on my list are National Parks and Botanical gardens in South Africa, the UK, and the USA. 

The most important photography trip for me is to return to Scotland. I am honoring my promise to my Father to return and capture the beautiful landscapes and the elusive Puffins.  Your help to make these trips a reality would be much appreciated in today’s economy.

Grand Tour of Scotland: Day 11: 22 August 2019 ~Exploring Isle of Skye, The Fairy Glen #51

The Fairy Glen ~ Uig

Skye has a long history involving the Fairies, most related to Dunvegan Castle and their ‘Fairy Flag.’ The Fairy Glen (much like the Fairy Pools in Glenbrittle) has no real legends or stories involving fairies that can be traced. The simple fact is that the location is unusual, so it has been given the nickname Fairy Glen.

One of the hills still has its basalt topping intact, which, from a distance, looks like a ruin and has been called (inexplicably) Castle Ewan. It is possible to climb to the top without much room, but it has wonderful views. On the low cliff behind Castle Ewan, there is a very small cave where it has been said pressing coins into cracks in the rock will bring Good Luck.

In recent years visitors have started to move the rocks to create spirals on the ground. We have been told that some bus tour guides have made up and encouraged some rituals involving walking the spirals and then leaving a coin or token in the center as an offering to the fairies for good luck.
The locals on Skye have repeatedly removed these stone spirals to keep the Glen in its natural state.

We hope that all visitors will respect the country code. To visit & enjoy, but not make adjustments and certainly not leave anything behind, even if you think it may give you good luck.

Parking is very limited in the Glen, and it is strongly recommended you park in Uig and walk into the Glen (30min).

PS. I am saving up for upcoming Landscape Photography Trips to Scotland and Namibia and a few road trips in the USA, including Route 66 and The historic Apache Trail. Also on my list are National Parks and Botanical gardens in South Africa, the UK, and the USA. 

The most important photography trip for me is to return to Scotland. I am honoring my promise to my Father to return and capture the beautiful landscapes and the elusive Puffins.  Your help to make these trips a reality would be much appreciated in today’s economy.

Grand Tour of Scotland: Day 11: 22 August 2019 ~Exploring Isle of Skye, The Fairy Glen #40

The Fairy Glen ~ Uig

Skye has a long history involving the Fairies, most related to Dunvegan Castle and their ‘Fairy Flag.’ The Fairy Glen (much like the Fairy Pools in Glenbrittle) has no real legends or stories involving fairies that can be traced. The simple fact is that the location is unusual, so it has been given the nickname Fairy Glen.

One of the hills still has its basalt topping intact, which, from a distance, looks like a ruin and has been called (inexplicably) Castle Ewan. It is possible to climb to the top without much room, but it has wonderful views. On the low cliff behind Castle Ewan, there is a very small cave where it has been said pressing coins into cracks in the rock will bring Good Luck.

In recent years visitors have started to move the rocks to create spirals on the ground. We have been told that some bus tour guides have made up and encouraged some rituals involving walking the spirals and then leaving a coin or token in the center as an offering to the fairies for good luck.
The locals on Skye have repeatedly removed these stone spirals to keep the Glen in its natural state.

We hope that all visitors will respect the country code. To visit & enjoy, but not make adjustments and certainly not leave anything behind, even if you think it may give you good luck.

Parking is very limited in the Glen, and it is strongly recommended you park in Uig and walk into the Glen (30min).
