Find A Walk
The landscape is open and access remarkably easy, the scenery superb with the extra thrill of rich archaeology and spectacular wildlife. Whether young or old, there is something for everyone, maybe even too much! There are so many amazing things to see and so many stunning places to visit, that a lifetime would be needed in order to do them all justice. Weather rarely stops keen walkers and sometimes the poorest days create the most spectacular sky effects.
There are common threads to every walk, and yet each one is unique, with endless untold stories of endurance and adventure, locked within each stretch of coastline or hill, each ancient site and crumbling ruin. Shetland is more of a collection of small worlds rather than islands. Its natural and human history has combined through the ages, to create a mesmerising multi-sensory experience of time and place.
Whatever type of walking you enjoy, from a short stroll to a trek through wilderness areas, Shetland offers many superb locations. When you're out, look for our wonderful wildlife, seeing them in their indigenous habitat is a fabulous experience! Take some time to admire the scenery and stop awhile to explore our fascinating cultural heritage.
So enjoy the walks and enjoy Shetland.
