Shetland for a day
Hi all! I'm flying up and landing around midday tomorrow, will be leaving midday the next day. It's for work so I've been provided a car and accommodation, and the actual project will take me an hour in Lerwick. So I have most of the afternoon to explore (till dark at least). As a keen outdoorsman, a birder and a guy from Australia this is a dream come true if only for a day! I'm hoping work will send me up a few more times soon enough.
For now though, I'd love a recommendation or two as to your best outdoorsy/birding spot on the mainland or maybe a good ruin or two to visit? I'm planning on maximising my free hire car from work so happy to be doing a big several hours road trip! Even one or two spots would be great. I'm aware I can google it, but getting recs from locals is always undoubtedly better!
