Ben Wyvis from Knockfarrel

Knockfarrel is a vitrified pictish Iron Age fort which lies on the Knockfarrel hill. With a prominent position in the landscape, the views from Knockfarrel are unrivalled. Looking across to the Ben Wyvis massif, the arable ground of Srath Peffer is clearly seen on the lower slopes. Look out for Castle Leod, home of the Clan Mackenzie chief, the Earl of Cromartie.
