There is no better place on earth to take a stroll - or a vigorous hike if that is what you fancy. This guide will steer you around some fo Shetland's best "circular" walks. They have been picked from the late Peter Guy's popular seven-title series "Walking the Coastline of Shetland" and thoroughly revised. You'll visit some of our best beauty spots but also go back on time to visit prehistoric settlement sites, brochs, cairns and burnt mounds. You'll wander through deserted "toons" - evidence of the clearances of the 1800s - and wonder at the harsh lives of the beach based haaf fishermen. You can immerse yourself in Shetland folklore and disover amazing wildlife and flowers along the way. Best of all is Shetland's amazing seascapes. There's nowhere like it and nothing like this guide to introduce you to selection of our islands' gems.
