Grimsay Health Walks
Meet at 11am, fortnightly on Wednesday
A Health Walk is a short, social guided walk adapted to suit the needs of the walkers. The walks are free and can be 10-60 minutes. Why walking? Walking is a simple way to increase your physical activity. It’s good for all round health, can help improve your mood and it’s free – you just need comfy footwear. Our walks are on and around Grimsay and are usually on roads, tracks and sometimes over the sand at low tide. Please dress appropriately! If it’s bad weather, we do strength and balance exercises in our Activity Room.

Grimsay Boat Trail
The Grimsay Boat Trail links three locations on Grimsay with our Grimsay Boat Museum, interpreting the past and present of the unique Grimsay workboat and Grimsay fishing. These sites – at Kenary, the Grimsay Boatshed and Bagh Mor – are self-guided and always open. A map is available at Ceann na h-Àirigh.
