We did this lovely walk whilst staying in Finstown. We found the paths were fine. Although it has been generally dry weather , there have been some showers, but the track was dry and easy to walk. Bluebells were prolific in the woods. Would really recommend it for the views and also the chance to walk through ancient woods, a rarity in Orkney.
