Orkney is famous for its Neolithic and Viking past, but our wartime heritage is well worth exploring. During two World Wars, thousands of servicemen and women were stationed here on ship and shore, defending the great natural harbour of Scapa Flow. • Visit imposing gun batteries perched on our coastline, cross the Churchill Barriers, built to protect the Royal Navy’s warships, and walk to the towering headland at Marwick Head and see the memorial to hundreds of men who died alongside Lord Kitchener on-board HMS Hampshire more than 100-years-ago. • Follow our special itinerary at http://bit.ly/FortressOrkney to experience Fortress Orkney. • Autumn is the perfect season to stroll on quiet, unspoilt beaches, walk on our wild coastline and explore our incredible islands at a pace perfect for you.
