The North-west Highlands are among the least populated areas in Scotland and have some of the most rugged and beautiful scenery to be found anywhere in the world. The rocks in the area are some of the oldest on earth and there are places where the various rock is exposed to show the different ages during which they were created. There are Lochs to sail on, islands to explore and mountains to climb (including over 20 Munros - mountains over 3000 feet - within 30 miles of Taigh a' Bhraoin).

The wildlife to be seen in the area includes some of the rarest species in the UK, including Red Kites, Sea Eagles, Pine Martens, Otters, Seals and Porpoises. Make sure you bring your binoculars!
