Harlosh (Template:Langx) is a settlement on the island of Skye off the west coast of Scotland. The settlement is on a peninsula of the same name.
Situated at the end of a narrow peninsula between Lochs Caroy and Bharcasaig (both of which are arms of Loch Bracadale), Harlosh is some Script error: No such module "convert". from the village of Dunvegan. Harlosh Island and Tarner Island lie just offshore, with Wiay some Script error: No such module "convert". distant to the south.[1] The name "Harlosh" is of Old Norse origin and may refer to a river mouth, although the meaning is not clear.[2]
The ruins of Dun Feorlig broch are just to the north east along the shores of Loch Caroy. This Iron Age structure has an external diameter of Script error: No such module "convert". and there is little trace of the building except for part of the foundation course. It sits on an elevated rock separated from the surrounding area by a deep hollow that was probably excavated.[3] Dun Reil is a structure of a similar antiquity to the south of Harlosh beyond Camus Ban.[1]
The premises of the Isle of Skye Fudge Company are located in Harlosh[4] and the Ben Aketil wind farm is situated between Harlosh and Edinbane in the hills beyond Upper Feorlig.[5] Part of the wind farm is owned by local people through the Isle of Skye Renewables Co-operative.[6]
Accommodation is available in this small crofting township at a range of B&Bs.
Other small settlements on the Harlosh peninsula are Feorlig and Vatten.
