Enjoy panoramic views over Loch Carron

Take a break from driving and pull in for the panoramic views at the Loch Carron viewpoint. You can see all the way to Wellington's Nose from here.

This forest is hidden gem with more gorgeous views over Strome Castle, Loch Carron and even to Skye. It's a charming community woodland with pleasant trails and quiet picnic tables. Sixteen species of fern grow in the damp environment and summer wildflowers bloom on the sheltered slopes. Keep an eye out for coastal and woodland birds. Seals often sun themselves on rocks below the wood.

Strome Wood is managed through a partnership with Fernaig Community Trust.
