View of Ullapool

Highlight • Settlement

Ullapool is considered the gateway to the wilderness. It is the last major settlement before heading into the solitude of the North West Highlands.

Actually a beautiful hike. However, the path along the country road is unpleasant due to passing vehicles. The view from the lighthouse is rewarding and magnificent. The route, especially along the country road, is not recommended in rain or bad weather.
