 Walking on the Orkney and Shetland Isles is an inspirational guide to day walking on Scotland’s Northern Isles - Orkney, Shetland and Fair Isle - off the northeastern tip of Britain. Packed with archaeological sites, dotted with rare wildflowers and thronged with seabirds, these clusters of islands are a world away from the rest of Scotland. They sit at the turning point of the North Sea and the North Atlantic - Orkney nearest to mainland Scotland and Shetland further out - with the tiny dot of Fair Isle midway between the two.
This book is a must for anyone wanting to explore this diverse landscape on foot. Two sections - one for Orkney, the other for Shetland - describe over 80 walks, ranging from short strolls to ancient monuments to more challenging long coastal routes and moorland traverses. - 80 walks on 25 islands across Orkney and Shetland
- full-colour photographs and OS mapping
- lots of information about the history of each area visited and the wildlife to look out for
- full details of how to get to, and travel around, the islands
