The Quiraing

The Quiraing is an area of outstanding natural beauty. The dramatic cliffs and open plains give it a fairytale-like quality that you have to see for yourself! Also, it’s a 40-minute drive from Portree and 25 minutes from Old Man of Storr, making it an ideal day trip or weekend getaway destination! The road to the north is a single track that connects both Staffin and Uig. It has been well maintained, with good views along its route including some spectacular coastal scenery!

You may not think of it, but there are some great spots for your ceremony and photographer nearby. In fact, the area you’re standing on could end up being one such spot! The Quairang is a place that needs to be experienced in person. You can hike into The Table from any number of trails, and if you want the full experience, then make your way up and over onto this otherworldly plain.

Its lush green grass encases you within the jagged landscape and is a perfect spot for an elopement. It’ll also take around two hours to hike there and back as the route is fairly flat.
