About the trip
This escorted six-night walking holiday with Explore Worldwide begins in Inverness and quickly moves to Kirkwall, the administrative capital of Orkney, where St Magnus Cathedral and its medieval neighbours set an atmospheric tone. Over the next days, walks are spread across several islands, including a ferry trip to Westray, where cliff paths pass puffin colonies and ruins of Noltland Castle.
