The Rue and Roonivoolin
On a combination of surfaced roads and designated trails. The Rue and Roonivoolin will allow you to cover about half the island. You could see the East Lighthouse and hear about Robert the Bruce. Make tracks to the lonely Coastguard Lookout and along the way, hopefully see buzzard, raven, gannet and guillemots. You can walk the cliffs at Roonivoolin, keeping an eye out for chough, peregrine and Irish Hare. This tour lasts around four hours. The pace is unhurried, but prepare to get muddy at times.
Boomerang Bonanza
On a combination of surfaced roads and designated trails. Good chance of covering many parts of the island. In late Spring see orchids and Pyramidal Bugle. Throughout the Summer season see Harebells, Lady's Bedstraw and Eyebright. This tour lasts around seven hours and is at an unhurried pace.
We may also use a minibus. The minibus operates separately from the walks and costs around £5 per person. It can be used to travel to and/or from the Seabird Centre. It is subject to the operator's agreement and availability on the day.
Cost of Ferry is not included. Advance booking essential. Group rates available.
