The Old Man of Storr on the Trotternish Ridge is probably the most famous walk, and definitely the busiest attraction, on the Isle of Skye. The Old Man (Bodach an Stòr in Gaelic), is a 55-metre-high pinnacle of basalt rock which is all that remains of a 2,800-million-year-old volcanic plug. The Trotternish Ridge (highest summit being The Storr at 719m) was created around 60million years ago by a massive landslip. Hot volcanic lava flowed onto the weaker sedimentary Jurassic rock beneath it causing the latter to collapse and form the undulating cliff faces of the eastern coastline of Trotternish. The magnificent pinnacles and weathered basalt rock formations of The Storr dominates the Island’s north-eastern landscape and can be seen for miles by travellers heading north as well as from the mainland. The Old Man of Storr is situated just off the A855 Portree to Uig road, 6.8 miles north of Portree and 27 miles from Uig. A car journey will take 14 minutes from Portree and 58 minutes from Uig. There is a shorter route from Uig (20 miles, 47 minutes) via the hill road from the turn-off after Idrigil Bay Viewpoint to the Quiraing.
