Da Kist Sea Stack

Highlight • Natural Monument

Da Kist is an unusual looking stack, with it's natural arch seemingly ready to collapse in the next storm, but still holding up for now. I don't think I would kayak under it, all the same.

Big Geo of Strom Ness

Highlight • Natural Monument

The path takes you to a ruined building at Burg, but the real gems lie just beyond in Qui Ness geo to the North and the Big Geo of Strom Ness to the West - a huge chasm!

The second half is challenging and you may need a head for heights!

Great hike with fascinating views. On the coastal strip, sure-footedness and a head for heights are required.
