The Old Man of Storr on the Trotternish Ridge is probably the most famous walk on the Isle of Skye.
The Old Man (Bodach an Stòr in Gaelic), is a 55-metre-high pinnacle of basalt rock which is all that remains of a 2,800-million-year-old volcanic plug.We took the opportunity to do this walk early(ish) this morning. Brodie came with and although on the lead the whole time as there were sheep about, his behaviour was exemplary.

Good morning everyone!
Yesterday, I shared a photo of the #OldManOfStorr from the road approaching #Portree.
This is what it looks like when you hike up past it and get to see it up close 😍

We have been in #Scotland for more than a week now and have been absolutely blown away by the beauty, amazing people, and the urge to want to go completely feral and sell it all to move here. Seriously-'southern hospitality' has nothing on Scottish hospitality!
I can't decide what is helping to make me feel stronger: the multiple walks each day or the IrnBru that I get with my lunch (after a strong tea w/breakfast)?

There are plenty of photos of the Old Man of Storr but fewer from it as the paths around it can be a bit of a scramble. The surrounding area, including 'The Sanctuary' behind it (as usually viewed) is also well worth exploring.
A unique and often bizarre landscape.This was taken from the path that runs up and around the Old Man and behind 'The Cathedral'.
Yes, the names are all wonderful 🙂

With the forecast looking a bit suspect for getting back tonight through the snow and ice we stayed closer to home than originally planned where it was fine, dry and sunny ☀️
A view of Portree I'm surprised I don't see more often from all the visitors, looking North over the bay and village with the Old Man of Storr on the horizon.
