Sgàthach is a legendary Scottish warrior who lived on the coast of An t-Eilean Sgitheanach (the Isle of Skye). The ruins of Dùn Sgàthaich (Dunscaith Castle) are said to stand on the site of her “Fortress of Shadows” where she trained Cú Chulainn, a famous mythological hero. This medieval structure, which does occupy an older fortified site, remains perched on a rock above Loch Eishort with parts of the curtain wall still clinging to the cliff edge.
