Most walks in this guide, in whole or in part, cross tough, trackless terrain, but there are few technical difficulties and experienced walkers properly equipped will find them hugely rewarding. They range from 5 to 22km (3 to 14 miles) and from short circuits close to civilisation to long, remote and demanding mountain traverses.
Mull’s only Munro, Ben More, is suppor ted by a fine cast of lower heights and threaded between them great glens, once used by drovers and their cattle, provide linear walks as good as anything on mainland Scotland. The coastline, ranging from sandy flats to exquisite raised beaches backed by cliffs once washed by the sea, is spectacular .
The island is rugged, in many parts untamed and remote, elsewhere tranquil and exquisitely beautiful, and that wildness makes it an outstanding location for wildlife. Deer are commonplace, golden and sea eagles grace the air, otters frolic at the water’ s edge, dolphins and harbour porpoise slip effortlessly by.
