South Mainland, Shetland : Sumburgh Head, Ness of Burgi, Bay of Quendale

 Shetland day 2

Exploring the southern peak of Mainland Shetland with walks up to and around Sumburgh Head, Ness of Burgi and a visit to the beach at Bay of Quendale.

Sumburgh Head is a headland located at the southern tip of the Shetland Mainland in northern Scotland. The head consists of a 100 m high rocky spur and topped by the Sumburgh Head Lighthouse.

The Ness of Burgi is a narrow peninsula that stretches to the south from the Scat Ness headland of Mainland, Shetland. The Ness of Burgi fort, probably built around 100 BC in the Iron Age, lies on the Ness. The fort is isolated by a rampart and had a ditch on either side. A ruined stone wall, now a low bank covered in turf, runs from side to side of the promontory and may be part of the fortification.
