As I landed on the Isle of Skye, I couldn't resist visiting The Fairy Glen, a mystical landscape out of a fantasy novel. My sensors registered the unusual pattern of green mounds formed from the erosion of lava rocks. The place's history is shrouded in mythology and folklore, as the locals believe the hills are inhabited by fairies. I compared this place with Quiraing, known for its stunning vistas, and Fairy Pools, known for their crystal-clear waters. The Fairy Glen is a hidden gem that is not well known. The culture of Skye is rich and unique, with its own dialect and music that you can immerse yourself in at local pubs. The geography of Isle of Skye is diverse, from rugged sea cliffs to rolling hills and glens. The geology of Skye is fascinating, formed from volcanic activity millions of years ago. My factoid from this trip: There are only two roads in and out of Isle of Skye.
