The siren call of Skye means that for many visitors Lochalsh is merely one end of a bridge across which they pass oblivious to the history and heritage of this small coastal village. But because the area commanded a vital sea route through the kyle, its history is as colourful as any in the Highlands. Within an hour’s drive of Lochalsh, both on and off the mainland, is countryside as vivid, inviting and rugged as any. Here, fjord-like sea lochs probe the coastal glens, high mountains rise almost from the sea, and 'hidden gems' of scenery surrender to anyone willing to strike out on foot.

These guides are brilliant. The walks are arranged with the shortest at the beginning of the book and the longest at the end, so if you haven't done much walking you can ease yourself in gently.
Each walk is detailed over about five pages. There is a Ordnance Survey map showing the complete walk, though they are not large and I would therefore advise you to take a 1:25000 map of the area and a compass that you know how to use. There is a general description of the walk with points corresponding to the map and advice on where to park the car or catch a bus.
I would consider the Pathfinder series to be the best available, as the descriptions of the walks compared to my experiences of these walks mean that the authors must have actually done them.
