This was our first stop on our day exploring the Isle of Skye.  The famous Kilt Rock is a sea cliff in north east Trotternish and was named for its resemblance to a kilt, with vertical basalt columns to form the pleats and intruded sills of dolerite forming the pattern.  From the car park, you have to look north up the coast to see the Kilt Rock. Closer by is the Mealt Waterfall, which freefalls off the cliff for 60m into the Sound of Raasay below. Sometimes, when the wind is strong, the water is blown away and it doesn’t reach the bottom at all.  On our visit, the water was flowing freely and the view to Kilt Rock clear.
