Isle of Skye (Part 3) - Do you believe in Fairies? Dunvegan castle has a Fairy Flag with magical powers and the Clan Chief married a Fairy..
From Loch Snizort you will travel up to the Waternish Ridge and stop by a Fairy Bridge with tales of a Macleod Clan Chief who married a Fairy. Incredible as this may seem, when the Fairy had to return to the underworld, she left him a Flag with mysterious powers that could call upon extra clansmen if ever the Clan was in trouble in battle. This Flag is on display in Dunvegan castle today! The trip up Waternish will bring you to Trumpan Church, an eerie place reflecting a terrible tragedy and, nearby, the site of the Battle of the Spoiling Dyke. From there you will drive on to Dunvegan and take in the splendid Dunvegan Castle before taking time to visit Talisker distillery. On the tour you will visit the magical Fairy Pools with the Cullin mountains as a backdrop. Much to see and hear so enjoy this final part 3 tour of the Isle of Skye
