Coastal Walks Scotland

Scotland and its islands encompass over 10,000 miles of coastline that is as diverse as the country's inland scenery, and similarly breathtaking. Magnificent experiences abound in this wildly varied collection of Scottish coastal walking routes, the first of its kind. The 100 routes outlined by Andrew Dempster take in the quaint fishing ports, long sun-bleached strands and vast golf links of the east coast; the grand Gothic cliffs, natural arches and storm-tossed seastacks that comprise much of the fractured edge of the Atlantic; the kaleidoscopic wildflower carpet of the Western Isles machair; the remote, romantic castles and ancient clearance settlements of Skye; and myriad idyllic secluded beaches and breathtaking clifftop vantage points. This unique guide to the very best coastal treks in Scotland covers the whole spectrum, from short hour-long beach strolls to serious full-day hikes that require mountain gear and total commitment. Compiled in a user-friendly format and containing maps and illustrations throughout, 100 Classic Coastal Walks in Scotland provides a wealth of walking possibilities for anyone with an interest in outdoor pursuits, with many of the walks also suitable for children. 100 Classic Coastal Walks in Scotland.
