The towering Old Man of Hoy, with people on the cliff adding scale. The Old Man is barely part of Hoy, the second largest of Orkney’s islands at about 10 by 5 miles. Hoy’s name fittingly comes from the Old Norse for 'High Island'. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/hoy/hoy/index.html

Information about and images of the island of Hoy in Orkney on Undiscovered Scotland.

@UndisScot brings back great memories of my visit to the Old Man, many years ago now, getting a wonderfully close up view of the puffins coming in to land in their burrows in the cliffs.
