Here’s another shot of Eilean Donan Castle. I think I prefer the moody, ground-based image I shared a week or two ago but this one does show the design of the castle much more thoroughly… so on that front, it’s a winner.
When people think of Scottish castles, Eilean Donan Castle is probably up there in the top 5… maybe top 3? It’s made appearances in the likes of the Highlander and Bond movies. It’s also regularly found on all sorts of tourist stuff… calendars and the like. Anyway. On the drive to Skye you pass this place and the obvious thing to do is pull into the car park right next to the castle BUT if you continue on about 2minutes you’ll end up at a smaller (quieter) car park on the other side with, what I feel, is a more interesting view with the mountains in the background giving some interest when compared to the other angles. Of course, if you have a quadcopter on hand then things can get even more interesting.
