Viewpoints

Whether a local who regularly passes by, or a visitor to the Far North of Scotland. Take time to stop at one of our viewpoints to find interpretation panels and a seat to admire the views of the spectacular Flow Country.

Cnoc Craggie is a stunning viewpoint at the top of Loch Loyal on the A836, a few miles south of Tongue. The viewpoint overlooks open peatland, lochs and hills, with Borgie Forest in the distance.

Moine House is on the main road to the west of Tongue, in a vast area of peatland known as ‘A’ Mhoine, which means peat or moss in Gaelic. At the ruin of the house you will find viewpoints with information and a short walk along the route of the old road.

The Loch Rangag viewpoint gives vast sweeping views of the south and west, overlooking peatland habitats and Blar nam Faoileag (The bog of the seagulls), and of Loch Rangag with its broch.

Crask is an outstanding viewpoint across the peatlands with a mountain backdrop and an area of recent peatland restoration by Forestry and Land Scotland.

Flows Lookout is situated on the RSPB Forsinard Flows Reserve, it offers fabulous views of blanket bog and pool systems from an elevated advantage point. Access is via the Dubh Lochain Trail boardwalk.
