The famous Kilt Rock is a sea cliff in North-East Trotternish. It is said to resemble a kilt, with vertical basalt columns to form the pleats and intruded sills of Dolerite forming the pattern.
•
This is a popular stopping point on the road between Portree and Staffin.
•
You have to look North up the coast to see the Kilt Rock. Closer by is the Mealt Waterfall, which free-falls off the cliff for 60 meters into the Sound of Raasay below.
•
Sometimes, when the wind is strong, the water is blown away and it doesn’t reach the bottom at all.
