Clan Mac Neacail - Scorrybreac

Scorrybreac

Scorrybreac is the land that the clan occupied for 800 years, and was seat of the Clan MacNeacail chief until 1826. The MacNeacails emigrated from Scorybreac during the Highland Clearances. In 1987, the clan purchased the Ben Chracaig estate, which makes up part of the original Scorrybreac lands. Today, this land is governed by the Clan MacNeacail Trust. The land is just north of Portree, and very rugged. The Portree Circuit is a footpath that goes through Scorrybreac and is open to the general public.
