Rhenigidale, Coastal village in Harris, Scotland
The settlement sits along the eastern shoreline of Harris island, facing the waters of the Minch with views toward the Isle of Skye and mainland Scotland.
Until 1990, residents accessed the village solely by traversing a five-kilometer hill path or traveling by boat, as no proper road connection existed to the community.
The village maintains traditional crofting practices, where local families engage in small-scale farming and livestock management within the Outer Hebrides landscape.
The Gatliff Hebridean Hostel in Rhenigidale provides accommodation for fourteen people across three bedrooms, with additional camping spaces on leveled ground outside.
The village held Britain's last single-digit telephone number, Rhenigidale 1, until March 1990 when the system underwent modernization.
