Beschreibung:

No talking, just walking. Exploring the Scottish Countryside. A nice gentle walk around Helmsdale, a charming village located on the east coast of Sutherland in the Scottish Highlands. Known for its rich history, scenic beauty, and vibrant local culture, Helmsdale offers visitors a blend of historical intrigue and natural splendor. The village lies at the mouth of the River Helmsdale, where it meets the North Sea. The area around Helmsdale has a long history, with evidence of settlements dating back to prehistoric times. The modern village was established in the early 19th century as part of the Highland Clearances, a period when many small settlements were displaced to make way for large sheep farms. Helmsdale’s history is closely linked to fishing and, more recently, to the herring industry, which played a crucial role in its development during the 19th century.
