Applecross is a stunningly beautiful peninsula which is located on the west coast of Wester Ross, directly opposite Raasay, Rona and Skye. It is a remote and tranquil area that is home to an abundant range of wildlife including otters, deer and the rare pine marten. Sea birds of many varieties are abundant here, Applecross is a "twitcher's" paradise, and porpoises and even whales can be sighted. Other activities in this unspoit landscape include walking, climbing, kayaking, surfing and other water-sports, which take advantage of the warm seas from the Gulf stream. |
