Description by the author

Hiking route to the Devil's Point. Always check the weather before you do this hike! This is a tough and long walk.

The hike should actually be named
"Bod an Deamhain hike". The name is derived from Gaelic, meaning "Penis of the Demon". The English name is a result of a visit to the area by Queen Victoria. She asked her local ghillie, John Brown, to translate the name; to avoid embarrassment he gave a euphemistic answer.
