Outdoor Adventure

Enjoy the outdoors during your stay in Caithness. The Ulbster Arms Hotel and Lodges offer the perfect base from which to explore the wide-open space and rugged coastlines. And you’ll not be disappointed by the opportunities to spot the rich and varied wildlife that calls this area home.

From paddleboarding and surfing to kayaking and diving, there are plenty of options for those who love watersports or would like to give something new a try. Don’t worry about getting wet: our handy drying room is available for your wet gear, post adventure.

For those who wish to keep their feet firmly on dry land, you could head out mountain biking, or for a more leisurely afternoon, try your hand at pony trekking or take a stroll with some friendly alpacas.

While you’re out and about, keep an eye out for our native wildlife. Find out more at Venture North
