Smirisary path A rocky section of the footpath between Smirisary and the remote sandy beach at Eilean Coille. It is actually one of the easier sections, as the extremely wet ground means the 'grassy path' has become braided bog. A rewarding walk with stunning views of the Small Isles.

This way to the beach? I note that other contributors, more intrepid than me, have made their way to the white sand beach to the south of Smirisary, but this was about as far as I got having decided that boots full of water and peat were not really an option. The path is certainly challenging in places, mainly due to poor drainage.
