Trail description
The Scorrybreac Circuit leaves the small car park below the Cuillin Hills Hotel in Portree and follows the shore of Portree Bay past the tidal Black Rock to the Scorrybreac headland, named after a small ruined village on the hillside above. The path then climbs and returns above the bay, with views across to Raasay and a chance of seeing sea eagles that nest on nearby cliffs.
