Health Promotion and Visit Outer Hebrides collaborated recently to promote walking routes across the islands by updating six of their walking leaflet packs.
The packs, originally produced in 2014, were updated to bring them into line with the newer leaflets in the collection. There are now 13 walking routes and three cycle routes across the islands.
These packs are available to residents of the Outer Hebrides who wish to increase their physical activity through walking.
The packs have been made widely available across the islands by Visit Outer Hebrides at their Visitor Information Centres in Stornoway and Tarbert, MacGillvrary’s Shop on Benbecula, Lochboisdale Hotel on South Uist and Buth Bharraigh on Barra.
Health Promotion also have packs available for collection (Lewis & Harris and Uists & Barra) from its Stornoway office based at Laxdale Court and Balivanich office based at Winfield Way. Alternative arrangements can be made for residents of Harris and Barra.
