What are some popular attractions near Lochboisdale?

Six miles (10 kilometres) northwest of Lochboisdale, the Kildonan Museum is small but packed full of fascinating artefacts and also has a tearoom and craft shop. History lovers will want to head half a mile south of the museum to see a cairn that marks the site of Flora MacDonald’s birthplace. A 10-minute drive south takes you to the Bronze Age roundhouses of Cladh Hallan. In the north of the island, Loch Skipport is famed for its friendly wild ponies and is the starting point for climbing Hecla, the island’s second-highest mountain. Bonnie Prince Charlie history is also a draw here: you can take a Bonnie Prince Charlie-themed boat trip to learn more.
