Mountain Hike to the Shepherds Hut

After being taken to the start point in the 4×4 with a bit more effort you can enjoy unrivalled panoramic views of the North Coast and Scotland as you climb Knocklayde Mountain. This walking trip will take you high up the slopes where you will discover a very unique traditional stone built shepherds hut and sheep pens. The hut has been restored and will provide a welcome rest point with refreshments. You will discover how the hut was used in the past and why it is located so far up the mountainside.
