Depart Lerwick and take a short driving tour around the main sights of the town on the way out. Highlights will include the harbour, Town Hall and Clickimin Broch.

We journey west, travelling through the Tingwall Valley, past the historic Park Hall to reach Sand. Stop at Sand Honesty Box where you'll have the chance to purchase some fresh homebaking in true Shetland fashion before heading down to the beach for a photostop.

We take a short walk up to the small and beautiful Culswick Chapel.

Stanydale ‘Temple’ is the only truly megalithic structure surviving from prehistoric Shetland. It comprises a wall of large boulders enclosing a wide oval area, which would have originally been enclosed by a great timber roof. Nobody knows what purpose Stanydale served. The archaeologist who excavated the site called it a ‘temple’, as the structure is similar to known Neolithic temples in Malta. However, it could just as easily have acted as a village hall, courtroom or chieftan’s hall. Whatever its purpose, it’s a significant building in a landscape rich in prehistoric structures.

Arriving at our last stop, Skeld, we learn about the former cod fishery and spend some time exploring the pleasant marina. There will also be a chance to purchase refreshments.

Return to Lerwick to finish the tour. Please note that any time not accounted for is spent travelling between locations.
