While most visitors to Scotland flock to the famous Isle of Skye, only a 25-minute ferry ride away lies a lesser-known island. This beautiful, wild and rugged island has a rich but somber history shaped by centuries of Gaelic culture and the Highland Clearances. The Isle of Raasay once had a population of around a thousand, but a series of bad landowners in the 19th century evicted everyone from the fertile south. This forced people to emigrate or make a living in the barren north and nearby islands. Most of Raasay became a sheep farm, then a sporting estate. The few remaining residents were confined to the north behind a high stone-built wall. Entire villages, including Hallaig were abandoned. It wasn’t until the 1920s that the government and landowners were shamed by land raids and public outcry into allowing resettlement in the south. In this video, I catch the Calmac Raasay ferry to explore the Isle of Raasay. I visit the Isle of Raasay distillery, the main settlement of Inverarish, the abandoned village of Hallaig, Calum's Road and I hike the wild and rugged north of the island to reach the Raasay bothy. 🍿 WATCH NEXT: ISLE OF MUCK:    • I Tried Tiny Scottish Island Life For 7 Days   SCOTLAND'S WHISKY ISLAND:    • Visiting The World's Whisky Island | Islay   ISLE OF ARRAN:    • Visiting The Scottish Island That Has Ever...   HIKING IN SCOTLAND'S WILDERNESS:    • Hiking 15-Miles To Mainland Britain's Most...   INVERIE / KNOYDART:    • Visiting The Most Remote Village In Mainla...   EXTRA CONTENT ON PATREON: 🎬 Get access to exclusive uncut and bonus videos, behind-the-scenes content and sneak peeks into future projects -   / ruthaisling   🚌 My Scotland Group Trips: https://ruthaisling.com/group-trips/ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 My Scotland Google Map: https://geni.us/L7sek2P 💌 Free Scotland Travel Guide: https://ruthaisling.com MY OTHER SOCIALS: 📸 INSTAGRAM -   / ruthaisling   🎥 FACEBOOK -   / ruthaisling   📱 TIKTOK -   / ruth.aisling   🌍 WEBSITE - https://ruthaisling.com MY FAVOURITE TOOLS & GEAR: 🚽 Trelino - The best van toilet (Use code RUTHAISLING for a discount or gift): https://geni.us/lC0UmdH 🔋 Bluetti - My favourite van portable batteries (Use code BLUETTIRA for 5% discount): https://geni.us/ewxrm1v 🎵 Epidemic Sound - Music in my videos: https://geni.us/a1Qq WHO AM I? If we haven't met before... Hi, I'm Ruth 👋 and I recently bought a campervan to travel my home country of Scotland after living overseas for 12 years.
