Dance Information

The Quiraing is a landslip on the eastern face of Meall na Suiramach, the northernmost summit of the Trotternish Ridge on the Isle of Skye.

The whole of the Trotternish Ridge escarpment was formed by a great series of landslips and the Quiraing is the only part of the slip still moving.
