We travelled by ferry to the Island of Hoy with the specific intention to walk out to and photograph the Old Man of Hoy Sea Stack. This walk was almost 10kms long and we had to climb and descend the equivalent of 60 flights of stairs to get there. To be honest I wasn’t sure my legs were up to the task, but my walking partners were extremely supportive and patient and we did it. The walk and photography was spectacular but the best part was doing it with my Daughter, Dave and Alison and Karen.
After our walk out to the Old man of Hoy, we had lunch at the car and then we took a short walk down to the Bothy at Rackwick Bay Beach. We were treated to a visit with some Highland Cows (Coo’s). They were super friendly and posed for us for quite some time.
