NC500 GT. - 20 –Bone Caves
As we continue north on this virtual NC500 route we come across these.

"The Bone Caves are a series of natural caves set into a high limestone cliff called Creag nan Uamh (Crag of the Caves). The caves are named for the large numbers of animal bones found during excavations.
There are four main cave openings in the cliffs, formed before the last ice age by water dissolving limestone in cracks in the surrounding rock. Subsequent glacial action and erosion of the glen by water left the caves hundreds of feet above the valley floor." PiP.


The NC 500: The Scottish 'North Coast 500' is one of the world’s most beautiful road trips. A route of just over 500 miles (516) of stunning coastal scenery, white sandy beaches, rugged mountains, remote fishing villages and hidden gems.

It was a bit rough as it was also very windy on the traverse over the scree. Eileen was not enthralled about that but our way back was safer albeit slightly longer. The caves were well worth seeing but they did not seem to go so very deep.

Cheers. Herb
