Garynahine

Garynahine

Garynahine (Scottish Gaelic: "Gearraidh na h-aibhne") lies at a T-junction where roads from Stornoway, Uig and the West Side of Lewis all meet.

Garynahine is the location of some outliers of the Callanish stones ('Ceann Hulavig'), an elliptical ring of five standing stones, 13.3 m x 9.5 m in diameter.

Nearby Garynahine Lodge is situated close to the shores of Loch Roag, which opens on to the Atlantic Ocean. It is part of the Garynahine Estate, extending to nearly 12,000 acres (49 km²) with approximately 40 freshwater trout lochs.
