The topography of Rahoy and its surrounding countryside is reflected in the diversity of animal and bird populations. From mountain top through native woods to sheltered sea shore with islands and skerries and nearby freshwater lochs. There are few places in Britain with the opporunities to see such a variety of wildlife including Woodland birds, Pine Martens and Deer, Eagles and birds on the high tops, Otters, Seals, Divers, Waders and occasionally even the enormous Sea Eagles.

Rahoy is a paradise for anyone seeking peace and tranquility close to nature, and has a particular appeal to naturalists, geologists and those interested in the history of the highlands. Here is a wealth of evidence of past habitation and cultivation going back to the Iron Age in the form of a Vitrified Fort just to the west of Rahoy Lodge.

With the change in seasons come different attractions. The solitude of the place is very special at any time of the year. Whatever the weather, whatever the season, there is always something to remember and cherish. Spring with the migrant birds coming in and woodland carpeted in wild flowers. The long, lazy days of Summer. The amazing colours of Autumn with stags roaring during the Rut, and Winter can be very special, evoking a real sense of wilderness and the privilege of being far from the madding crowd.

Rahoy is a wonderful centre from which to explore the West Coast.
