Sligachan Bridge, Isle of Skye: Waters of Eternal Beauty (Explored) - Panorama

Sligachan Bridge, Isle of Skye: Waters of Eternal Beauty
Isle of Skye, Scotland
Panorama built by merging a series of three overlapping photos.

The Isle of Skye has always been seen as a magical place. There are some great stories, some true, some legends that go with the landscape of the Isle of Skye.

Located where the Black Cuillin meets the western seaboard, the Sligachan Old Bridge has an impressive history on its own, but what makes this location so incredible is the old folk tale about the enchanted waters that run under the viaduct. Legend has it that if you wash your face in the River Sligachan you'll gain eternal beauty — and whether or not you believe in the story, it's well worth the trip to the Isle of Skye to experience the bridge's undeniable presence.

The Sligachan Old Bridge was built between 1810 and 1818 by engineer Thomas Telford. The bridge is for pedestrians and cyclists only following construction of a new road bridge parallel to it on the A87.
