4 North Harris Trust Guided Walks The following walks and events are led by the North Harris Ranger Service. Whether you are interested in learning about wildlife and wildflowers, or just want to get out and explore, there should be something for you. Harris is an important place for wildlife and the open landscape provides excellent opportunities for viewing many birds, animals and plants. The island hosts spectacular scenery, ranging from rugged mountain tops and rocky shores to rich machair grassland and sandy beaches. These habitats are home to some of Scotland s most iconic species including red deer, otter, and golden eagle. The walks and events in this leaflet have been put together to raise awareness and encourage enjoyment of the unique island environment. Finding it difficult to get to the start of our walks? Give us a call. If you contact us in good time lifts will usually be available for up to four from Tarbert to walks in North Harris. Charges and booking All of these walks are free of charge except the eagle walk. Donations are welcomed for the other walks. No booking is necessary, however if the weather is particularly poor on the day of the walk it is advisable to check if the walk is still going ahead.

5 Wildlife Walks The Isle of Harris is blessed with an abundance of wildlife. In this series of walks we hope to show you the highlights of what Harris has to offer. As they are wild animals, we cannot guarantee sightings but experience has taught us the best places to view them from.

RSPB Scotland and the North Harris Trust are working in partnership to provide an Eagle Walk every Wednesday from 5th April right through to 25th October. The North Harris Hills hold one of the highest densities of golden eagles in Europe and the open landscape provides superb opportunities for viewing this iconic predator. There has been a 95% success rate of seeing eagles on previous eagle walks. The walks will be lead alternately by the North Harris Ranger Service and RSPB Scotland.

19 RSPB GUIDED WALKS ON LEWIS LOCH NA MUILNE RESERVE Friday 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd and 30th June PLUS Friday 7th July 10am 12pm MEET: Loch na Muilne Reserve viewing cairn (NB ) DISTANCE: short walk from car park COST: Free Join RSPB staff and you may be treated with a sight of the rare Red-necked phalarope. This wader is unusual as the females are the more colourful of the two sexes and also perform most of the courtship. The females then leave the males to incubate eggs and rear the chicks, an interesting role reversal! In addition the reserve hosts an abundance of other flora and fauna with other breeding waders such as lapwing and dunlin and a stunning display of orchids and other flowering plants. Join us at the viewing cairn which is a short walk from the end of the road and overlooks the loch. For further Information on these walks please contact: Vicky Anderson victoria.anderson@rspb.org.uk or RSPB GUIDED WALKS ON UIST The RSPB runs a comprehensive programme of walks on Uist including otter walks, bird of prey walks, corncrake walks and guided walks at the Balranald Nature Reserve.
