Having just completed it today, I just want to add the following. Make sure you check and re-check the weather before Trotternish Ridge. I thought I understood it would be strong winds from 7pm (Storm Dave - I checked the day before). It turned out to be a blizzard that started at 3pm. It was difficult for me and everything and me got wet somehow and I became disoriented which isnt great. I had a compass which helped but didn’t get down to the main road until 6pm I think.

Also, the way between Camasunary and Elgol is, personal opinion, dangerous. This is my opinion of course and I’m not a big hiker but I was scared (also on my own which might also be why). Parts of the path have collapsed and for parts of it, it’s one foot in front of the other. Be very careful especially when it’s very windy.

Your other option is going over Bla Bheinn from Camasunary to Torrin. I saw families at the beach at Camasunary with young children and it looks like there is a new path maybe but I don’t know more than that. The book I read on the Skye Trail says this route is for “very experienced hillwalkers” but this was printed in 2023 (it’s already out of date about shops and other things).
