Isle of Skye & Scottish Highlands: 3-Day Iconic Landscapes Tour

Duntulm Castle

Duntulm Castle

Atmospheric cliff-top ruins of a former MacDonald stronghold at Skye’s northern tip.
Perched on the cliffs at Skye’s northern tip, Duntulm Castle is a dramatic ruin once held by Clan MacDonald of Sleat. Its crumbling walls and sea-battered position evoke the island’s turbulent clan rivalries. Though largely a shell, the site offers sweeping views over the Minch towards the Outer Hebrides. Standing among the tumbled stones, visitors sense both the isolation and strategic importance of this headland stronghold in centuries past.
