Places in Raasay

Dun Caan, Raasay hill not safe
Raasay's flat-topped summit: the Cuillin one way, the Torridon hills the other. Boswell danced here.
Not safe on the tops — 50 mph up there, and they'll be in cloud

Isle of Raasay Distillery place any weather
Ten minutes from the ferry: tours, a Cuillin view from the bar, and rooms if you miss the boat.
Not weather-dependent

Calum's Road & Brochel Castle viewpoint good
The two-mile road one man built by hand to Arnish, starting at a castle ruin on a rock.
The tops will be in cloud
