This was a very interesting stop, there was a good notice board giving the basic info on the place, and easy parking. Could be a lttle muddy if wet. A wee bit eerie as we went at dusk.

About eight miles from Drumnadrochit and not on a bus route, although one passes the end of the access road about a mile from the cairn. The interpretation provided at the monument is minimal so print this out and take it with you or go with a guide. There are two tour companies who visit the cairn. This is a... More
