The most northern point in mainland Britain. Beautiful Views of Orkney and the north coast.
This is nothing less than spectacular. The winding 5 mile single track road over rough moorland to the lighthouse is an experience in itself. On occasion you might journey through 4 seasons' worth of weather, enjoying the coastal views on the way and close up contact with shaggy ginger Highland cows, as well as the opportunity to explore the surrounding moorland dotted with derelict First and Second World War barracks buildings and gun emplacement sites. It was also a wartime radar station.There's a good car park by the lighthouse at the top, but no shops or tearooms so take a sandwich and a drink.The views are stunning from the cliff tops, including Orkney and the Pentland Firth

The point, also known as Easter Head, is at grid reference ND202767, about 18 km (11 mi) west-northwest of John o' Groats and about 20 km (12 mi) from Duncansby Head. Although Easter Head is the most northerly point on the Scottish mainland, the northernmost point of Scotland lies in the Shetland islands, approximately 170 miles (270 km) further north. The peninsula is north-east of the burgh of Thurso, and on a clear day, it affords views of the islands of Stroma to the east, and Hoy and the Orkney Mainland, 15 km (9 miles) away to the north, across the Pentland Firth.
