Sports and leisure activities Île de Mull

It is the second highest mountain in Mull, with a peak at 766 m. Any walker can conquer the first 550 m of altitude. Indeed, two communication antennas are served by an excellent trail that is easy to follow, even for those who would be put off by maps. Beware, there are no real parking spaces. The ascent to the second antenna requires good legs. The view over the whole east of Mull and the nearby coast is amazing. Beyond that and to reach Dun Da Ghaoithe, you'll need to be an experienced hiker.

The roof of Mull is the only Munro present on a Scottish island outside Skye. With a peak at 966 m altitude, it offers one of the most beautiful walks on the island and a breathtaking panorama. The simplest and most direct trail starts in Dhiseig, on the B8073, at a small car park. It climbs quite steeply, sometimes indistinctly through the rocky chaos, and the round trip is 10 km long (approx. 6 hours). Once up there, the whole island, the rest of the Hebrides and the west coast are open to you.

This other coastal wonder is a fossilized tree in the rock on the Ardmeanach Peninsula. It would have appeared 50 million years ago following an eruption of Ben More, which was then a volcano. The trail starts at Tiroran, a tiny place accessible from the B8035 at Killiemore. It then follows the coast westwards. Some parts are less passable than others, but the view of the cliffs is breathtaking and your final destination is well worth the detour. The area is protected by the National Trust of Scotland.
