Scolpaig - Discover ancient archaeology, dramatic coastal scenery and one of North Uist's most unusual historic landmarks.

Located on the north-west coast of North Uist in the Outer Hebrides, Scolpaig is a fascinating area combining beautiful island scenery with thousands of years of history. The landscape contains evidence of prehistoric settlement and archaeological remains, while the surrounding coastline, lochs and open moorland provide a wonderfully remote setting for exploring this part of the island.

One of the most distinctive landmarks is Scolpaig Tower, also known as MacLeod's Folly, a striking stone tower built in the 19th century on a small island in Loch Scolpaig. The area is also rewarding for walkers, photographers and wildlife enthusiasts, with opportunities to enjoy the rugged coastline and experience the peaceful landscapes for which North Uist is renowned.
