Se sgìre bhreagh a th’ann an sgìre Thròndairnis ann an ceann a tuath an eilein Sgitheanaich. ‘Sann ann an Tròndairnis a tha grunnd dhe na seallaidhean as ainmeil anns an eilean, na measg Bodach na Stòrr, an Cuth-raing agus Creag an Fheilidh, agus tha na mìltean de luchd-turais a’ tadhal air an sgìre gach bliadhna.

Tha Tròndairnis a’ toirt a-steach Stafainn, Uig agus Cille Mhoire agus bha a-riamh coimhearsnachd laidir Gàidhlig ann a bailtean na sgìre. Anns an t-sreath seo a chaidh a’ fiolmadh thairis air bliadhna, tha sinn a’ cur eòlas air muinntir Thròndairnis agus a’ leantainn na sgeulachdan aca tro’n bhliadhna.

The Trotternish peninsula on the island of Skye is an area of outstanding natural beauty and is home to some of Skye’s best known landmarks, including The Old Man of Storr, the Quiraing, Kilt Rock and Fairy Glen, and it attracts thousands of visitors every year. Trotternish also has a traditional crofting community and some of Skye’s strongest Gaelic speaking areas.
