There's
no need to hang up your walking boots just because Summer is
over. Why not get away from it all by enjoying a short weekend
walking break on Mull this Winter?
Walking on the island during
the Winter months can be hugely restorative, peaceful and
beautiful Take time out to be invigorated by stunning seascapes,
inhale the pure air and be captivated by Mull's amazing
wildlife.
Winter on the Isle of Mull
is a good time to view local wildlife. The deer. eagles, otters
and seals are still here but the midges have gone! The
migratory songbirds that enlivened Mull's woodlands in Spring
have departed, to be replaced by a variety of waterfowl from
more northerly latitudes. Divers, ducks, geese, grebes and swans
arrive to take advantage of Mull's mild Winter climate, making
the island's sea lochs their temporary home.
The
walking route and itinerary will be selected on the day, taking
into account the weather conditions, fitness of the group and
any special requests. We begin at 10.00 am and aim to be back in
Tobermory by 4.00 pm. Walks will be no more
than five miles, allowing for a relaxed time to enjoy the
island's spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife.
Our accommodation
will be at
carefully selected, quality
Bed and Breakfast accommodation (minimum 3
star) in Tobermory. The rooms all have
en-suite bath or shower room. It is 5
minutes walk downhill to the seafront, shops and restaurants. Self catering accommodation is also
