Brodgar Wildlife Walk
The Brodgar Wildlife Walk is a short circular walk around the RSPB reserve which surrounds the Ring of Brodgar.
During the autumn and winter months, this area hosts a fantastic variety of wildfowl on both Stenness and Harray lochs including Slavonian Grebes, Long-tailed Ducks and Goldeneyes. In the grassland habitats, keep an eye out for waders such as Golden Plovers, Snipe and Curlews. This is also a good place to see Brown Hares in the fields and Harbour Seals in Stenness Loch. Walk length approx 2-3 miles.
It is possible to use the public bus service for this walk. Please mention at the time of booking/enquiry for more information.
Please wear walking boots, and bring warm waterproof clothing, a drink and a snack. Further information on where to meet and what to bring with you will be provided at the time of booking.

One of the many things we love about walking in Orkney is the surprise of the unknown, you just never know what you might see which adds to the enjoyment of being outdoors.
