Black Rock is conveniently placed at the eastern end of the Trans-Scotland walk and is on the the edge of some of the most spectacular and unspoiled country in the Highlands. Step out of your caravan or tent at any time and enjoy the beautiful views surrounding the campsite. Spend an afternoon following the river up through Glen Glass to Loch Glass. We are only a short distance from the Cromarty Firth, home to a large colony of seals and they can be regularly seen sunning themselves on rocks close to the shoreline. Spectacular views of the Black Isle, Ben Wyvis and the Western Highlands are only short walks away. For those of you who wish to travel further afield similar areas of great natural beauty and historical interest can be easily reached making Black Rock a natural place to base yourself during your holiday.
