Journey Beyond Your Imagination...

Skye is a place to relax and reflect. Skye is the home of the world famous Cuillin Mountains and an ancient culture.

The Skye Bridge

Love it or hate it, the Skye Bridge, spanning from Kyle of Lochalsh to Kyleakin, is here and for most people it will be your gateway to Skye. Seen on a peaceful late spring evening from the railway station at Kyle of Lochalsh, it can even look quite elegant.

Though originally a toll bridge, there is now no toll so access to the Island across the bridge is free.

Caledonian MacBrayne

Caledondian MacBrayne operate ferry services to and from The Island on routes from Armadale to Mallaig and from Uig to The Western Isles. In addition there are CalMac ferries serving Raasay from Sconser and The Small Isles (Canna, Rùm, Eigg and Muck) from Mallaig.

ScotRail

ScotRail run rail services from throughout Scotland and the UK to the railway stations at Kyle of Lochalsh and Mallaig. The scenery along these rail routes (The Kyle Line & The West Highland Line) is tremendous.

For current details of the routes and timings see ScotRail's own website.

When travelling by train, I have also found the nationwide route checking and search facility to be especially useful. This can be found at the National Timetable website.
