The ruins of Gylen Castle stand on a rocky headland at the southern end of the Isle of Kerrera.

Built during the sixteenth century, the castle occupies an exposed position overlooking the Firth of Lorn and the surrounding coastline. This view captures the isolated setting that has made the ruins one of the island’s most recognisable landmarks.
