I will be staying at Broadford YHA from Monday to Saturday. The hostel is fully booked for Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th. If you decide to go on the trip it is advisable to book your accommodation ASAP. Google 'Broadford Isle of Skye' for more information about Broadford. The cost of the holiday is £300.00. per person. If you stay for less than the week, the cost will be reduced pro rata. This does not include accommodation, food or transport. Car sharing within the group will reduce transport costs. Traditionally May and June are the best months for walking in Skye, less rainfall, more sunshine and the dreaded Scottish midge has not yet appeared in swarms as it does later in the summer. Your holiday starts when we meet in the evening at Broadford Hotel. This will give you the opportunity to meet me and get to know the other group members. I will be available to answer any questions you may have and tell you more about our intended plans for the forthcoming week. It is planned to do 4 days of strenuous high level mountain walking with 2 more relaxed days. The aim of the holiday is to provide an enjoyable and memorable experience for all among some of Scotland's finest scenery. To achieve this the group numbers will be kept low, maximum ratio 1:8, and the emphasis of the holiday will be pleasureable walking within a relaxed informal atmosphere. If you wish to ask any questions about the type of walking involved or would like to discuss the suitability of the holiday, please do not hesitate to phone or email me.

Skye is probably the best known of Scotland's islands. Famous for the impressive rugged
mountain range of the Black Cuillin and also the contrasting hills of the Red Cuillin.
It is well known to rock climbers and walkers alike. In addition to the awe inspiring
mountain scenery it boasts a dramatic coastline of towering cliffs and deep sea lochs
rich in wild life. A holiday on Skye offers exhilarating high level walking among some
of Scotland's most spectacular scenery. Broadford is well placed for the weeks' itinerary.
There are 2 public houses with a good selection of food, a fish & chip shop, a garage and
a Co-Op both selling food.
