walking in Skye and Islay
We will be in Skye and Islay in July. We are interested in hiking in beautiful landscapes (photography subjects). I am looking at the Quirang in northern Skye. How difficult a hike is that? Does anyone have a favorite hike in those areas?

I do love Quiraing quite a lot, the Old Man of Storr is a photography classic and an easy climb but is inundated with tourists in the summer. I quite enjoyed doing the Red Cuillins last year. My dream would be to climb Sgurr Na Stri. Islay on the other hand is super flat and its photography landscapes of interest would be a wild ocean or a large flock of birds. I really like Machir Bay on Islay for a day at the beach. Hope this helps.
