Ullapol Nature & History Walks

Embark on a relaxed walking tour off the beaten path, taking in Ullapool’s stunning setting between mountains and sea. Enjoy a peaceful and active nature experience while your approachable guide entertains you with captivating stories.

Having explored Ullapool's historic centre, your friendly, knowledgeable guide will lead you away from the trodden path. Immerse yourself in majestic mountain, coastal, island and river views. Discover local stories, geology, folklore and get deep insights along the way. Our nature walks make the most of Ullapool’s beautiful surroundings, its historic charm and offer plenty of fantastic viewpoints and great photo opportunities, too.

Choose from 2 delightful, private walking tours, starting at Ullapool harbour:

DISCOVERY WALK (2.5 h)

Start at the historic heart of the village and venture out away from the crowds into Ullapool’s outskirts with stunning views. Your local expert guide will give you real insights, enlightening facts, and tell you entertaining stories along the way. Enjoy an easy walk on various terrains: sidewalks on quiet streets with historic sites, a pebble beach, a winding scenic coastal path and a secluded riverside path through woodland. Relax at great viewpoints, see a world-class geological feature, discover the lush flora, watch the waves come and go, and capture your memories in amazing photos. Perfect for anyone who loves to be active in nature, is curious about Ullapool and wants to unwind.

This is an easy walking tour on sidewalks, grass and gravel paths with pebbles, some uneven ground and some gentle gradients. The tour price depends on the size of your group and starts from £35 per person.

ADVENTURE WALK (3 h)

Begin your adventure at Ullapool harbour, within the village’s historic area. Soon we head off the beaten track and walk along the enchanting coastline of Loch Broom with wide-open sea and island views, onto a charming woodland path next to a beautiful river, and onwards into Rhidorroch estate. Your local experienced guide will entertain you with captivating stories and local folklore and bring Ullapool’s past brilliantly to life. Insights into village life today will be shared as well and you will discover a world-famous geological site, too. The loop halfway up and down Ullapool hill will reward you with breathtaking panoramic views and a feeling of truly being away from it all. On our way back on a different route, every step will reveal a dramatic tapestry of mountains, sea and sky. This walk is the perfect way for adventurers and explorers to immerse themselves in nature and experience the authentic history and heritage of Ullapool, the Highlands and its people. 

This is an easy walking tour on sidewalks, grass and gravel paths with gradients, combined with a medium-level hike on uneven, possibly boggy ground, incl. some steep sections up and down a rocky, narrow path. The tour price depends on the size of your group and starts from £45 per person.

We also offer History Tours, Food Tours and Shore Excursions.
