Bushcraft

Raasay has conifer and natural birch forests, heather moorlands and miles of untracked land. Remote hill lochs have been stocked by former landowners with trout and Arctic char, providing great fishing opportunities. Raasay’s shorelines and those of its neighbouring islands are rich in shellfish and edible seaweed.  Learn to distinguish between edible and inedible fungi, forage for your dinner and then learn how to light a fire without matches to cook your food, before building your own shelter for the night.

Just imagine sitting by a campfire watching the trout you just caught cooking over the flames. Don’t just dream it – do it here on Raasay!
