The image top is of the Car Park for the
Rigg Viewpoint.
The second and third images are looking East
and North. The flat area down there looks like
a championship standard Links Golf Course, but
must be kept in such condition by Sheep
grazing.
The view south is also impressive with
Portree in the distance, and the Storr Pinnacle
only 3 miles south.
This area is the most scenic area on the
east coast of Skye, and some people claim it is
the best viewpoint in Scotland as you can see
mainland Scotland, Isle of Rona, Isle of
Raasay, Holm Island, Red and Black Cuillin
Mountains, Trotternish Ridge and the Old Man of
Storr.
