DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

WALK THE JOHN O'GROATS TRAIL
--------------------------------------

Why Walk the John o'Groats Trail

The John o'Groats Trail is a long-distance footpath that runs along the northeast coast of Scotland, from Inverness to John o'Groats, the most northerly point of mainland Britain. The trail is about 237 km (147 miles) long and passes through some of the country's most scenic and historic landscapes. Here are some reasons why you should consider walking the John o'Groats Trail.

- Experience the wild and rugged beauty of the Scottish coast. The trail follows the coastline for most of its length, offering stunning views of cliffs, beaches, islands, lighthouses, castles and wildlife. You will see seabirds, seals, dolphins and even whales along the way. You will also encounter some of Scotland's most dramatic geological features, such as the Old Red Sandstone cliffs at Helmsdale and the Duncansby Stacks near John o'Groats.

- Discover the rich and diverse history and culture of the region.

- Challenge yourself physically and mentally. The trail is a challenging walk. It crosses rough terrain, such as moorland, peat bog, farmland and rocky shore. You will need to navigate using maps, guidebooks and GPS devices. You will also need to plan your accommodation and transport, as there are few facilities and services along the way. In addition, you will face changing weather conditions, such as rain, wind and cold. But you will also feel outstanding achievement and satisfaction when you reach your destination.

- Meet friendly and hospitable locals and fellow walkers. The trail is relatively quiet and touristy, so you will have a chance to interact with the people who live and work in this remote and beautiful area. They are welcoming and helpful, ready to share their stories and tips.

You will also meet other walkers who share your passion and enthusiasm for walking and nature. You will make new friends and memories that will last a lifetime.

If you want a unique and rewarding adventure in Scotland, consider walking the John o'Groats Trail. It will challenge, inspire, and leave you with a lasting impression of this fantastic corner of the world.

DUNNET HEAD LIGHTHOUSE
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Marking the most Northernly point on the British Mainland, Dunnet Head Lighthouse is an active 19th-century lighthouse that stands on the 300-foot cliff top of Easter Head on Dunnet Head.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The lighthouse is 66 feet tall and was built in 1831 by Robert Stevenson, the grandfather of Robert Louis Stevenson.

They were responsible for building many of the lighthouses you will see on your travels.

The lighthouse was automated in 1989, and the keepers were withdrawn.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The view and wildlife are simply spectacular.

A winding road through this peninsula takes you past beaches, sea stacks, and small hillside lochs.

At the top, there is a large car park which sits slightly above Dunnet Head lighthouse.

This area also has an RSPB Nature reserve and the now famous Dunnet Bay Distillery close by.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Check out this area; it really is well worth a wee detour.
