<\/p>\nWe\u2019ve all had a little more time than usual to explore the local landscapes lately. It\u2019s been no different here on the Isle of Mull, with many of us heading out to enjoy the coastline, woodlands and glens on our doorsteps. Here, we hope to inspire you to explore the island on foot with some of the best walks on the Isle of Mull.<\/p>\n
Choose from these five of our favourites to get you started, from hill walks to wildflower meadows and geological wonders.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Of course, no guide to the best walks on the Isle of Mull would be complete without a nod to the island\u2019s only munro. Ben More<\/a> makes a fantastic peak to climb starting from the shore of Loch na Keal at Dhiseig.<\/p>\n In fine weather, enjoy clear skies and fantastic views over Mull\u2019s mountainous interior from the top, as well as excellent panoramas across to Iona, Staffa and the Treshnish Isles as you descend. For a more challenging climb, ascend via Beinn Fada.<\/p>\n One of Mull\u2019s most photographed features by intrepid walkers, the path to the Carsaig Arches<\/a> is not for the faint hearted, but promises a breath-taking natural spectacle at the end.<\/p>\n It\u2019s best done in fine weather as you hug the exposed, rocky coastline on the there and back route. You may find sure-footed wild goats and red deer keep you company!<\/p>\n If you\u2019re staying in a cottage in the north of the island, make a point of planning the Treshnish Point circular walk<\/a> during your stay. Parking on the west coast of the island, this track leads you around the coastline past pebble beaches, the whisky cave and ruined village of Craickag.<\/p>\n There\u2019s a chance to spot cetaceans off the coast, but what makes this walk most remarkable is the stunning display of wildflowers in early summer.<\/p>\n Keen walkers will relish the opportunity to explore the remote and wild Burg peninsula<\/a> in the south west of the island.<\/p>\n Parking in the designated area at Tiroran, head out for an all-day hike and experience some of Mull\u2019s most remarkable coastal landscapes and wildlife, as well as the remains of a historic dun.<\/p>\n Consider the tides before setting out to ensure you\u2019ll be able to descend to the Fossil Tree, before retracing your steps.<\/p>\n The Three Lochs are a regular pausing point for those enjoying the stunning drive through Glen More, but few venture further than the viewpoint. However, the surrounds of this chain of lochs offer excellent walking opportunities.<\/p>\n Enjoy a low level amble around the lochs themselves, keeping your eye out for hen harriers and short eared owls quartering the grassland. For hill walkers, the climb up Ben Fhada, with the optional addition of Creach Beinn<\/a>, will offer plenty of interest. Although not always a path well trodden, this is undoubtedly one of the best walks on the Isle of Mull with stunning scenery on both routes.<\/p>\n![\"Second](\"http:\/\/www.isleofmullcottages.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/DSC03737.jpg\")
