Until 1995, the only way to reach the Isle of Skye (on the left) from mainland Scotland at Kyle of Lochaish (on the right) was by a ferry taken from the terminal (the pier pointing towards the three islets). Now traffic along A87 takes the Skye Bridge over Loch Alsh to the Eilean Bán island before making a second crossing to Skye. In the background is the Sqùrr na Coinnich. This mountain has the highest elevation on Skye’s Sleat peninsula of 2,425 feet.
