Eilean Donan Castle - Old Man of Storr

The picture-book castle of Eilean Donan on its little island is the first stop, including a scare when an overtaking car clips our wing mirror. On the Isle of Skye we hike to the Old Man of Storr in strong winds before a bed and breakfast with a 7 am breakfast awaits us.

We begin today’s drive to the Eilean Donan Castle, a beautiful castle located on a stunning island. On the way there, we have a slight accident when our side mirror is touched by an overtaking vehicle. Fortunately, nothing worse happened and the scratches on our car are almost not visible.

After our visit to the castle, we continue on to the Isle of Skye and make our way to the Old Man of Storr. It’s an impressive experience to see the stunning landscape and the striking rock formation, but it’s also very windy and somewhat strenuous on the hike.

Then we drive to a charming town to refuel and do some shopping. Afterwards, we make our way to our Airbnb, which is a bed-and-breakfast. We will have our vegetarian breakfast at 7 a.m. tomorrow since we have a full day planned.

We are looking forward to tomorrow and are excited to see what else Scotland has to offer!
