This is one of the very few, well known places in Scotland where the casual visitor can see salmon attempting to leap up a waterfall. If you have yet to see the salmon leaping then this could be your best opportunity and my advise is that you should take it.
Go and see the Clava Cairns first.
Will take your advice and may get lucky - perhaps see some authentic rock art too. This has been such a helpful thread for me as the journey is a big part of the experience of going to Lewis.
My notebook will have plenty written in it beforehand.
I wouldn't necessarily reccomend going to the rock art June it 's not that special and the round trip from Contin would take a couple of hours , there is a track , of sorts ,but I doubt you would want to take a hire car along it .
