Welcome to the Isle of Skye!

The Isle of Skye is situated on the West coast of mainland Scotland, and is the largest and best known of the Inner Hebridean Islands.

Skye Backpackers sits in the picturesque fishing village of Kyleakin, skirted by mountains and sea. It’s a small, cozy hostel with an open fire in the lounge and a lovely backyard garden.

Come and stay in this wee village; the gateway to the Isle of Skye. With its lively pub atmosphere and quiet, comfortable accomodation, Kyleakin is the perfect place to come to escape the stresses of city life.

Whatever you’re looking for – hillwalking, sightseeing, kayaking, mountain biking or the legendary faeries, this island will not disappoint. Our lovely hostel staff can also help arrange bus tours, boat trips and bike hire!

Kyleakin is on the main bus route and is also easily accessible  from the train station at Kyle on the mainland. The village offers a shop, café,  pubs and spectacular scenic views.
