The Old Man of Storr, Isle of Skye, Scotland. As part of the Trotternish ridge - a 300m thick sandwich of around 24 layers of volcanic rock - the Storr was created by a massive ancient landslide, leaving one of the most iconic rock formations on the British Isles. The area in front of the cliffs is known as the Sanctuary, which has a number of weirdly shaped rock pinnacles created from the crumbling basalt. Legend has it that the Old Man of Storr gets its name because the rock outline and the protruding pinnacle resemble that of the face of an old man. Storr means big in Norse. Near the summit of the Storr, you can find one of Scotland’s rarest plants, Iceland Purslane.
