Stoer in Sutherland was the first crofters community to buy their own land from the Laird. With help from round the world and various schemes they reached the asking price of £300,000.
Walk along cliff tops, with stunning views of the coastline and the Old Man of Stoer. This is the nesting place of many seabirds, and there are several points where you get excellent views of the birds nesting or diving for fish in the sea below, but do take care on the clifftops as it can be very slippery.
This trip is a must if you come to Scotland as it really is sensational, and you feel at times as if you are on the moon with the landscape.
