Kilt Rock
Kilt Rock is a famous geological formation located on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. It is a cliff that rises up to 90 meters (295 feet) above the sea and is named for its resemblance to a Scottish kilt.
The rock is composed of basalt columns that have been formed by volcanic activity over millions of years. The columns are stacked on top of each other, creating a striking visual effect that has made Kilt Rock one of the most popular tourist attractions on the Isle of Skye.
At the base of Kilt Rock, there is a waterfall called Mealt Falls that drops 55 meters (180 feet) into the sea. The view of the waterfall cascading down the rock face is truly breath-taking, especially when viewed from the nearby viewing platform.
Kilt Rock is a must-see destination for anyone visiting the Isle of Skye, offering stunning natural beauty and a glimpse into the geological history of the region.
It is often combined with a visit to the Old Man of Storr and is approximately 40 miles from the Three Chimneys.
