Cretshengan

The farm at Cretshengan proved an easy place to find, even better I was given permission to park. From there walk back to road and head south for a few metres. Through the gate and head west, gentle slopes and short grass made the walk, thankfully, easy.

This is a stunning place place with stunning views over to the island of Jura and north towards Kilberry.

The stone stands at 1.6m tall and probably was used by the ancient peoples to mark a safe place to land. Below on the beach, windsurfers were having a great time so perhaps the old stone is still doing its job.

After standing for quite a while to savour the view, also to rest the increasingly sore leg, I made my way back to car and decided that one more stop would be enough. Nearby sites can also wait until 2025.
