Route Description for Duntulm Castle Walk
The Duntulm Castle Walk may be short, but it doesn't compromise on the fun! Explore the ruins of the castle harking to the 17th century, which overlooks the ocean. The castle belonged to the Macdonald Clan.
To get here, you'll follow a grassy path. Some users have reported seeing lots of rabbits, so we advise keeping your pup on a leash. After viewing the castle, turn around and head back the way you came, as this is an out-and-back route.
