Kyle Pontoons and Moorings
The Highland Council transferred the ownership of the pontoons to the Trust in April 2014 as part of the Community Challenge Fund. The Trust has been managing the facility and provide improvements for local and visiting boats as well as commercial operators.
We also prove 5 moorings between the village and the Skye Bridge, these are for locals and visitors. Please click the image above for more information.
Plock of Kyle
The Plock which came into Kyle & Lochalsh Community Trust’s (KLCT) ownership in February 2019 is a large area of land, around 60 acres, on the outskirts of the village at the access point to the Skye Bridge. It is a remarkable natural heritage and community asset which fell into disuse some years ago. Since taking ownership KLCT have improved access to the site and are hosting a range of activities.
