    Hiking

    Out Skerries Airfield, located on Bruray Island, is renowned for having one of the shortest runways in the world, measuring just 366 meters (1,200 feet) in length [1]. This compact airstrip offers a unique experience for aviation enthusiasts. However, it's important to note that scheduled flights to Out Skerries have been suspended due to the absence of fire crews on the island [2]. Therefore, visitors should plan alternative transportation methods, such as the ferry service from Vidlin or Lerwick, to reach the island.
