Caiteseal Isle of Lewis/Harris

Upvotes

I'm very interesting in getting to Caiteseal on the isle of Lewis and Harris starting from Eishken, it is roughly 15k there and 15k back but I was wondering if there was anyone here that has done it. I'm interested in knowing what it was like getting there and back (I am assuming very tough) and how long it took you. I know there are walking reports of it but I'm just curious and want to chat to someone who has done it.

Fort william to Isle of skye trail?

I am considering hiking from Fort william to Isle of Skye. I am wondering whether someone has experience with this or knows its possible. Specifically whether there are marked paths and whether there is enough possibility to stock up on food along the way?
