Duntulm (Scottish Gaelic: Dùn Thuilm) is a township situated on the northwest coast of the Trotternish peninsula on the Isle of Skye, and is made up of Shulista (North Duntulm) and South Duntulm.[1] It is located on the single-track A855 road about 24 miles north of Portree. The township is noted for its long fortified headland, which the ruins of Duntulm Castle presently sit.[2]
