Tour Scotland short 4K Autumn travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a Kilt and Sporran and walking in the Fairy Glen on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to the Island of Skye, Inner Hebrides, Britain, United Kingdom. The Fairy Glen, located near the village of Uig, is a surreal and captivating miniature landscape. Known for its bizarre, cone shaped grassy hills, small lochs, and unique rock formations, the glen has a magical atmosphere that has made it a very popular tourist destination. The glen's unusual topography is the result of ancient landslips caused by volcanic activity that took place around 60 million years ago. Glacial erosion later softened the features to create the current landscape. The same geological forces are responsible for the nearby Quiraing. While its name and appearance evoke images of mythical creatures, there are no specific ancient legends or stories associated with fairies living here. The name was likely given due to its otherworldly feel. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
