Eday Heritage Trail

30/8/2020

Comments

 
This is a circular loop of about 6.5 miles.  The terrain is varied, encompassing some road, some peat moorland and some very faint footpaths.  The walk highlights many of the wonderous features of Eday.  If you are only on the island for a short time and want to see the best of Eday, this is the walk you want to do!  You can extend the walk by incorporating the St. Stephens Gate walk and / or the Mill Bay Walk.

​​Unless you are fortunate enough to have a boat or are able to borrow a boat from a local, this walk will probably stay on your wish list.  Luckily, some Eday locals do offer to take visitors to the Calf of Eday for day trips during the summer months and will pick you up in the evening.  The local shop is a good place to inquire about trips.

A walk at the South end of Eday, not far from the pier. By all accounts, the coastal part of this walk is a great place to look for the elusive groatie buckies and various washed up loot.

    A local's view

    My husband James and I moved to a remote island of Eday in Orkney Islands back in December 2016 and we've been living at the North end of this beautiful island ever since. This blog is all about my view of life on this remote island and some information that we at Happy Homestead get frequently asked for. If there is anything I didn't cover yet, be sure to contact me.
