Skelbo Forest Walk

Location: Sutherland, Scotland

If you go down to the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise. Such as a gorilla or a giant spider or maybe nothing more scarey than a tortoise or squirrel. It's all part of the mile-and-a-half walk at the Forestry Commission's Skelbo woodland ramble, a little north of the Dornoch turn off. Marge and I took it in, again, on our way north recently and got the unexpected bonus of sudden sunshine which lit everything up. The animals, which I hasten to add, are not real but great fun for the kids to discover and there are feeders in the trees for the birds. The weather is on the turn but an autumnal walk could have its own attractions. Don't forget your cameras!
