Can you spot the black dot in the centre of the picture? That’s me walking back down the Kilchoman to Kilchiaran track, after having walked to Bealach na Caillich together with my sister Imke. For the return leg I had walked ahead as I needed to cover a few more miles while my sister took her time. This allowed her to capture this view of me as a tiny dot in the vast landscape with the Kilchoman Crags and the ruin of Kilchoman church visible in the distance.
A view from the track between Kilchoman and Kilchiaran, from just below Bealach na Caillich. I believe the rocks in front have fallen off the crags below the old radar station, probably wise to be careful in the area. Below Kilchoman beach in Machir Bay in stretching out into the distance. Taken on a beautiful April 2024 day.
A mostly cloudy April afternoon on the Rhinns of Islay, a view south from the hillock south of Bealach na Caillich. The entrance to Kilchiaran Bay below on the left. Not in the picture behind us the old chain link radar station.
