TRIP TO ASSYNT - OLD MAN OF STOER

starzec ze stoer jest skalnym kominem wylaniajacym sie z morza nieopodal latarni stoer.
dochodzi sie do niego sciezka wiodaca wzdluz poteznych klifow. spacer na okolo 3 godz.
mozna wrocic ta sama droga lub pojsc na przelaj przez bagniste wrzosowisko -opcja ta nie brzmi dobrze, ale wracajac ta droga mozna podziwiac wielkie masywy quinag, canisp, suilvena, cul mor a nawet stac pollaidh.
punkt ten jest znany rowniez z obserwacji delfinow, wielorybow, orek, fok i rekinow.
warto zabrac ze soba lornetke

old man of stoer is an impressive sea stack, nearby stoer lighthouse.
to see the old man follow the path going from the car park at the lighthouse, along high impressive cliffs. the walk there and back is about 3 hrs.
there is an alternative route back, going thru boggy moorland. i know it doesnt sound too good, but walking back this way you will be able to see all the big mountains of assynt lined out on the horizon: quinag, canisp, suilven, cul mor, even stac pollaidh.
the area is also known for seeings of seals, whales, sharks, dolphins so it is worth to take your binoculars, just in case :)
