Dun Gerashader Stone Fort / Dun View all content for Dun Gerashader

Visited 29.7.13 Directions: East of the A855 about 2 miles north of Portree. There is parking available at the side of the road. My last site of the day and what a great one to finish with! The Dun/Fort is close to the road but you do have to climb over a barbed wire fence and cross a small stream to get to it. Luckily it hadn’t been raining too much so the water levels were quite low and it wasn’t too difficult to cross. Then it is a short but steep walk up to the site. There were lots of large boulders scattered about but best of all was stone walling still standing to a height of about 1.5m – on the western side. There are also great views to be had south towards Portree and best of all, north towards the Old Man of Storr which could be clearly seen. I nice bit of Dun walling to see and great views – well worth the effort!
