Loch an Nostarie circular walk

Description

From the Circular Walk signpost at the west end of the parking area follow the path to the viewpoint at the top of the hill. From here there is a finger post reading 'Loch an Nostarie and Loch Eireagoraidh' and it is possible to follow the red and green way markers through the gully, over the hill and down towards the loch.

At the loch side another finger post will direct you along the shore towards 'Glasnacardoch' and way markers now bear the colours red, green and white.

After leaving the loch some 15 mins will take you past Glasnacarsoch House onto the old road which winds past the swimming pool and secondary school back to the centre of Mallaig.
