NC500 GT. - 44 – Kyle of Tongue

NC500 GT. - 44 – Kyle of Tongue
A short distance from the Kyle of Tonge crossing towards the village of Tongue stands Castle Varrich. It is a crumbling old tower house of the Mackays, in a beautiful rugged spot, near Tongue in Sutherland . The castle's precise origins and age are unknown.

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.

A beautiful scene. It seems by the post on the road that they don't want vehicles there.

I really like your composition here, with the hill and ruins being framed between the trees. Gorgeous light and wonderfully sharp too. Very nice indeed Herb..!!

It was a nice find Keith but I have learned since that I missed the classic view of this from far away. Glad you liked the framing with the trees and its light.

A terrific and nicely composed shot, Herb,
It looks lower than it appears to be from the village.

Thank you for adding your image to the "North Coast 500 Group"

Cheers Roger. We did not get the classic view which I see is quite marvellous but on the other hand we git views from the top of the castle.

Cheers. Herb
