During the Islay walking week 2014 we walked to the summit of Islay’s highest hill, where David took this picture at the end of our lunch break. Behind me is the shore around Proaig, the bothy at Proaig is to the right of my left shoulder.
A popular walk during the Islay walking week is the walk to the summit of Beinn Bheigier, the highest hill on Islay at 491m. While it was a bit hazy during our walk in 2014 we still enjoyed some great views. This view was as we were descending towards the south, looking over Ardtalla and the Southern Skerries.
