Hiking
Discovered in 2000, this Iron Age underground passage on Skye’s Trotternish Peninsula is thought to have been used for food storage. The stone-lined tunnel stretches about 17m and features a side chamber. Easy to access from the A855, with an info board and short walk. Bring a torch to explore inside!
