Sligachan (Scottish Gaelic: Sligeachan) is a small settlement on Skye, Scotland. It is close to the Cuillin mountains and provides a good viewpoint for seeing the Cuillin mountains.
The Sligachan Old Bridge was built between 1810 and 1818 by engineer Thomas Telford. The bridge is for pedestrians and cyclists only following construction of a new road bridge parallel to it on the A87. It was listed as a Category B and scheduled in 1971 and 1974, respectively.
This is a popular stopping point for people touring the island but walk just a few minutes in various directions and you soon lose the crowds.
