Make the Museum your starting point for exploring the 26 mile long STRATHNAVER TRAIL, which takes you out into the beautiful landscape of sea coast, straths, rivers and woodlands.  Here are the remains left by our ancestors from over 4000 years ago to more recent times, still holding many secrets to the fascinating story of the area.
