Vantage points at sea cliffs
The vantage points at Druim nam Faoillean are safe places to stand for great views – assuming it’s not blowing a hoolie! It’s only safe however, if you keep a sensible distance in from the edge. Similarly, the clifftop path route to Pigs Paradise is stunning, and safe assuming care is taken, and a great respect for the edge!
Dogs
Calm dogs on leads only can be accepted. The croft is home to free ranging hens and there’s livestock to be expected across all areas explored, forming part of a crofting income – so it’s essential that dogs arriving and accompanying walkers are at all times securely on a lead, remaining calm at cliff vantage points, for the safety of themselves and others.
Directions
The Wee Croft can be found by taking the new road at the northern shore of Port Mor bay, Lower Kilchattan. This hugs the rocky shore at first, and then gains height, until you pass a new-build to your left, and straight after this, see a track turning also to your left, through a gate. This takes you across a field that curves around. You’re aiming for the place with the red corrugate house roof – look out for this! Come across the croft then as far as the green shed, the hens will probably come to greet you, and you’ll find me around there.
Weather
Walks are weather dependent! Some days may be too windy and wet – we can reschedule if possible.
Sturdy footwear is required, with good layers, water & provisions to suit both the length of walk and the weather – often the classic Scottish combination of waterproofs and suncream!
