Overview

This straightforward walk follows a long track round above Lowlandman's Bay, frequented by seals, to reach a jetty on the Rubha an Leim peninsula - a beautiful spot. The return is back the same way, or by a much rougher route along the shore initially (the walk grade and bog factor assumes the track is walked in both directions).
