ヤローズ湖のおすすめライド

非常に急な階段が下へ続いています。残念ながら、上に戻るためのリフトはありません。

多くの追加設備を備えた、非常によく改装されたキャンプ場です。

A popular tourist destination at the northernmost tip of the British mainland. There is also a ferry service to the Orkney Islands. Parking is free for ferry passengers. There is a charge for using the toilet in the parking lot, but the gate often seems to be out of service.

Carefully arranged in a horseshoe pattern, the 4000 year old standing stones are thought to be unique in the North of Scotland. This is because normally the broad face of each stone faces the centre of the setting. Not so at Achavanich - here the edge faces the centre. Each stone was painstakingly cut from the bedrock of Caithness Flagstone using simple tools.

The stairs are quite steep, so you should not be afraid of heights.

The path to the viewpoint is now very easy, you no longer have to go around the valley (there is a comfortable path with wooden steps and a bridge). However, there can be a nasty wind at the top of the ledge, there are no railings!

The parking lot at Castle Sinclair does not have any sanitary facilities, but it is permitted to spend the night here (once) - and this is also used a lot! The sunrise and sunset are certainly spectacular... The parking fees are moderate - and according to the sign, they are not even enforced (so they are voluntary).

Lovely view of the coast and bring your binoculars to try and see the birds
