The Braes is a district south of Portree, Skye – the road threads scattered settlement before coming to a dead end at Peinchorran. We’ve visited An Àird, the winged peninsula facing the island of Raasay, many times. The exploration above Ollach was a new one – a very pleasant waymarked route up through the heather to some fine cascading falls, which might have been even more attractive had there been some significant rain recently…
