CEANNREASORT (KINLOCHRESORT)
At Ceann Loch Roag the road leading to Morsgail Lodge branches off to the left. Along this road an older track branches to the right - it is the start of a wonderful walk to Ceannreasort (Kinlochresort).
The old track cuts across a hillock at the barn - walk down by the kennels and then head out by the side of the loch. The river crossing is marked on the map.
Some distance form the crossing, at Beannagail, are a number of Beehive Dwellings. These constructions, which can be found throughout the islands, were devised in Neolithic times. The lower layers of stone were laid vertically, while the upper courses were given an inward overlap meeting in beehive shape at the copestone.
Just beyond the sheilings, cross the river at the makeshift bridge. Thereafter follow the path and way-stones which have been placed at intervals to avoid boggy land and to lead the walker to Ceannreasort and the deserted villages of Luachair and Cro-Leatha.
Callum an ‘ic Asgaill, a well known local figure who lived at Luachair all his life, got the BEM for his thrice weekly trip to Morsgail and back with mails for these villages and Aird Bheag and Tamnabhagh (Hamnaway). Duncan MacDonald of Giosla also received the BEM for delivering the mail to these villages. All of the villages have become uninhabited only since the 1960s.
