Discover 15 of the best short walks on the Isle of Mull, including Ulva and Iona. Each walk comes with easy-to-read Ordnance Survey maps, clear route description and lots of images, plus information on beauty spots and refreshment stops. No challenging terrain or complicated navigation means walks can be enjoyed by everyone.

Seasons

Year round; out-of-season visits mean less traffic on the island's narrow roads, lesser footfall and a better chance of seeing the wildlife

Centres

Tobermory is the only town on the island. Boats to the mainland run from Craignure and Fishnish, while Fionnphort is home to the Iona ferry.

Difficulty

The walks in this book are easy to follow and mostly on good paths, which vary from smooth, well-surfaced waymarked trails to more rugged paths across moorland terrain.

Must See

Tobermory's colourful harbourside houses ; Rubha nan Gall lighthouse; Kilvickeon beach; beautiful coastline; smaller islands of Iona, Ulva and Staffa; white-tailed and golden eagles, seals, otters; wildflower-rich 'machair' coastal meadows.
