Presentazione generale
Shetland
Very northern archipel, between cliffs, seabirds, archaeological sites, ports and isolated island atmosphere.
The discovery of Shetland revolves around Jarlshof, Sumburgh Head and Lerwick. The stay thus alternates between the island landscapes, the coastline, the natural spaces and the heritage, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
Vedi tutto
For a stay of 4 to 8 days, it is best to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: long access and harsh weather. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. However, some sites require more walking, elevation or preparation.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Archeological site
Jarlshof
Jarlshof gathers several layers of occupation in the same site beaten by the wind, from prehistoric houses to northern and medieval traces. The strength of the place lies in this almost in-depth reading of the history of the Shetland, facing the sea.
Fales
Sumburgh Head
Sumburgh Head combines cliffs, lighthouse and seabird observation in a highly exposed setting in southern Shetland. The walk remains accessible, but the wind, light and bird colonies quickly give the place a particular intensity.
Port city
Lerwick
Lerwick brings together the harbour, ferries, shopping streets and dark stone houses that give the Shetland its rhythm. The city is not only a logistics base: it shows the daily life of an archipelago facing the North Sea.
