Burwick Coastal Walk
This beautiful walk follows a cliff top path along the west coast of South Ronaldsay where we can get off the beaten track and escape the crowds.
There are plenty of opportunities to spot a huge variety of wildlife throughout the summer months including seabirds, seals, wildflowers, insects (butterflies, moths, bees, wasps, etc) and maybe some cetaceans if we are very lucky. Between May and July, there is a chance of seeing Puffins on the cliffs or bobbing about on the sea.
The views on a clear day are stunning!
“What a great walk we had with Megan at Burwick”
“Great day out. So informative”
This is a linear walk so we will return by the same route.
It is possible to extend this walk if you are interested in something a bit longer.
NB This is a narrow cliff top path, if you suffer from vertigo please inform us at the time of enquiry/booking.
From £45 per adult
