Just few miles out of Uig the Fairy Glen looks like a Quiraing landslip in miniature. Cone-shaped hills make the place fascinating and otherworldly looking. It gets busy in summer days so I would recommend coming early morning or late evening to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the place.

Duntulm castle is a set of ruins in a dramatic landscape. You cannot get to the ruins themselves as there is a risk of falling rocks but the view from the nearby beach is maybe even better!
