Stage 11

Lybster to Whaligoe
5-6 hours · 13 km · 1256 m gain
Another stage of about 5 to 6 hours leads toward Whaligoe on cliff paths and inland detours. The famous Whaligoe Steps lie near today's route - steep stone stairs that test knees and nerves.
Whaligoe is a handful of houses above dramatic cliffs. Accommodation is very limited - many walkers arrange private B&Bs or farm stays nearby.
