Exploration and inspiration
There are no simple answers here, only deep mysteries. And the soul-stirring beauty of a remote and rugged area of the earth.
Things you must do on The Outer Isles
Skara Brae
In the nineteenth century a wild storm on the island of Orkney uncovered this ancient site – more than 5000 years old, and now the best-preserved prehistoric site in northern Europe.

The Standing Stones of Callanais
Immerse yourself in the mystery and energy of these 3000-year-old, giant slabs on the Isle of Lewis.

A Wildlife Sea Trek
Watch puffins congregate on the rocks, and porpoises speeding through the blue waters. For the more extreme and adventurous travellers, there’s always kite-surfing on the beach at sandy Uig Bay.

Up Helly Aa
A rousing winter festival with powerful Viking roots on the Isle of Shetland.
