| Rather than a single walk, this is a series of walks on the beaches and over the cliffs near Durness. This is scenery reminiscent more of the Shetland Islands than the Scottish mainland, with sheer cliffs, sea birds, seals and crashing waves. |

| While not really a walk, a trip to Smoo Cave has to be included in any stay in Durness. Set into limestone cliffs, Smoo Cave is quite large - 200 feet long, 130 feet wide, and 50 feet high at the entrance-way. The cave is a great tourist attraction for people visiting the north-west coast, and is well worth a visit. |
