Overview

Pronounced Ben Sheahan, translated means The Fairy Hill. A short, steep hill walk up a grassy hillside. Our effort will first be rewarded with a stroll along a panoramic ridge.We then face a steep descent to be 'rewarded' by refreshments and goodies at the Broch Cafe. Please advise the leader if you wish to attend by 6pm on Saturday 26th August. If the weather forecast is poor the walk may be cancelled and an alternative may be offered.
