Mull Head Wildlife Walk
The Mull Head Wildlife walk is a circular route around a local nature reserve in the East mainland of Orkney.
Our walk will include a visit to The Gloup (collapsed sea cave), views across to the Brough of Deerness and some spectacular coastal scenery.
There is a lovely variety of habitats including farmland, heath, rocky shores and cliffs which host a range of wildlife – mammals, wildflowers, insects and of course lots of birds. Breeding seabirds include Shags, Fulmars, Razorbills, Skuas, Gulls and if we are lucky we might spot some Puffins.
Bring a picnic with you, which we will enjoy with a view while watching wildlife.
“We had a marvellous day out with Megan looking at the wildlife on and around Mull Head.”
“We had a wonderful half day walking with Megan on Mull Head. She is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate about Orkney and its wildlife, and a great guide”
This walk is approx. 4 miles in length which we do at a leisurely pace, allowing time to enjoy the wildlife and views.
From £65 per adult
