 John O'Groats Trail

The John o’ Groats Trail is a 147-mile coastal walking route that stretches from Inverness to John o’ Groats in the Scottish Highlands. It traverses shorelines, cliff tops, back lanes, and footpaths, offering stunning views of the rugged landscape. While some sections are already popular walks, others remain remote and challenging. Keep in mind that it’s a work in progress, so you’ll encounter occasional tall weeds, barbed wire fence crossings, stream fording, steep sections, and clifftop walking. If you’re an experienced walker, this trail provides dramatic scenery, including the Stacks of Duncansby and the Trapped Stack at Wife Geo12. Remember to follow the Outdoor Access Code and respect landowners’ requests during your journey

Camping

Whether you’re admiring the sea views, enjoying the salty breeze, or simply taking a break, Lybster Harbour welcomes campers with open arms. Remember to leave no trace and respect the natural surroundings during your stay.

Inver House, a charming 19th-century dwelling nestled on the side of a steep slope in Lybster Harbour, extends a warm Highland welcome to tourists and campers. The thoughtful owners, Brendan and Alison stewards of this historic gem, go the extra mile to enhance visitors’ experiences. Feel free to knock the door for a chat and a coffee.

And for those seeking to stay connected, just ask Brendan for the Wi-Fi password although it can be a bit unpredictable at times.

You might be in luck and be the benefactors of eggs from their Free Range chickens and if you come in the Mackerel season  they have their very own smokehouse so Smoke Mackerel might on the menu.
