This web site is named after Blaven, a mountain on the misty Isle of Skye. Blaven, or Blà Bheinn to use its proper Gaelic name, is widely recognised as one of the most beautiful and photogenic mountains in Scotland.

On this site you will discover photographs and information about Blaven and the surrounding area, including the nearby crofting community of Torrin.

For a relatively remote and thinly populated part of the United Kingdom the Isle of Skye is steeped in history and rich in myths. You can get a taste for this on the seven mile journey from the town of Broadford to Blaven. Also drink the views from the webcams in and around the island. Finally there is some general information and useful web links for Skye.
