This beautiful nature reserve's moorland contrasts starkly with the vibrant machair found elsewhere on South Uist. The reserve is home to a variety of ground nesting bird species, including hen harriers, skylarks and merlins. You might also spot a few wild ponies on your travels and, if you're really lucky, a sea eagle or two. There are also lovely views towards Beinn Mhòr, Hacla and Beinn Tairbert.
