Access (by JeffRep): From the minor road that continues on from the A850 after Deunvegan, park on the right where the road starts to cross a loch. Walk to the other side and take the path to the left. The trail heads up the hill to some low ruins. At that point the track seems to disappear but becomes visible again just beyond the ruins. It is now a pleasant grassy walking surface as it crosses pasture and then drops to the narrow isthmus. As you cross onto the peninsula you will see the remains of the broch almost straight ahead.
