Sea Stacks Odyssey

Sea Stacks Odyssey

Embark on a thrilling four-day climbing tour of the North of Scotland with us, as we climb the iconic sea stacks of the Old Man of Stoer, Am Buachaille and Old Man of Hoy.

Sea Stacks Odyssey Itinerary

Day 1: The group will meet at the Old Man of Stoer car park at 9am (although this might change according to tides and weather). A short walk and scramble down leads us to either a swim or a tyrollean traverse to get across. We will climb up the 4 pitch original route at VS 5a and take a single abseil off back to the ground. After the climb, the group will then drive to Sheigra and set up camp for the night.

Day 2: The group will head in along the track to Sandwood Bay and branch off to scramble down and swim across to Am Buachaille . We will then climb Am Buachaille located near Sandwood Bay. We will climb up the Landward face at VS 4c and then abseil back down and swim back to shore. We will then drive over to Scrabster to be prepared to get the ferry to Orkney and then Hoy first thing in the morning the next day.

Day 3: We will get the first ferry across to orkney and then the next available ferry to Hoy. From there we will have a taxi to take us to Rackwick where we will ditch water kit we do not need and walk to the Old Man Of Hoy to climb in possibly finishing with a stunning sunset abseil back down. We will then spend a night in the bothy or camping outside depending on space.

Day 4: We will take a more relaxing day where we wake up in Rackick Bothy, we could go for a quick dip in the sea then get a taxi back to the ferry and take the two ferries back to the mainland. From here we will part our ways.

We pride ourselves on providing as much kit as possible for you.  However, the list below is what we recommend you should bring to your Learn To Lead Multi Pitch Climbing Course:

  • Travel insurance. (We are insured for all our trips, but we recommend everyone has their own travel insurance as well.)
  • Transportation to the venue. (We may be able to help with this though – if you need transportation please drop us an enquiry and we can see what we can do to help.)
  • Lunch, water.
  • Personal medication
  • Sun cream, midge net
  • Waterproofs (it is Scotland after all)
  • Sturdy footwear.

Here at Highland Outdoor Adventures, we pride ourselves on providing as much as we can but you are welcome to bring your own equipment if you do prefer. The list below is what we provide you with on the day.

  • All instruction.
  • Helmets
  • Ropes
  • Harness
  • Helmets
  • All Technical Climbing Gear
  • All first aid and safety equipment.
  • Photographs of the day provided for you at no extra cost! If the weather is good we will have a DSLR professional camera and maybe even a drone, so we can take photos and videos of your adventure and you can look back at the day for years to come. If the weather is less favourable we will bring a GoPro (as it is waterproof) so we will still be able to take photos for you.
