Mull, Staffa, and Iona including Fingal's Cave

Details

This is a week of touring the Islands and Highlands of the Scottish West coast by a series of walks and sea journeys that give real insight into this wild, unique landscape. This trip may also suit the keen train-traveller, as there is an excellent mainline service to Oban.

Our walks will include a mix of island and coastal routes, seeking out wild places of natural beauty and tracks that lead to golden sands and long-abandoned highland villages. Our walking will be at ‘easy to moderate’ level, which means we will cover around 10-14 km on a full walking day, with the occasional stretch of ascent and descent and for the most part on good tracks.

Short ferry trips give access to Iona Island. The longer ferry trip to Staffa gives superb views of the islands Gometra and Ulva, and north to the jagged ridge of the Skye Cuillin.

### Grade: 2 - Easy to Moderate

  • An area famed for its natural beauty, history and wildlife, reached by a scenic journey through The Highlands to the port of Oban.
  • A comfortable hotel base with breakfast and packed lunch provided, a 5-min walk from the picturesque Tobermory Harbour.
  • We have a great chance of seeing puffins on Staffa, seals basking on the rocks at Iona, and eagles soaring over the hills close to Tobermory.
  • The boat trip into Staffa is nothing short of breath-taking! As we approach the famous Fingal's Cave, the natural architecture of the columnar basalt forms an amazing natural feature.
  • We will also visit and walk on the Island of Iona with its abbey founded in the year 563 by Columba.
  • There are great dining choices around Tobermory, especially if you enjoy seafood.
  • This is a busy itinerary! There is so much to see on Mull that we'll be working hard to fit it all in, but of course there will be some R&R time - this IS a holiday, after all!
