Product Info

Begin your journey at Whiting Ness car park and walk up the ramp to the top of the cliffs (the only hill on the walk) and head along the path to Carlingheugh Bay. Along the way, rediscover the same awe-inspiring discoveries that first inspired James Hutton (widely known as the grandfather of geology) over 300 years ago.

See evidence for Himalayan-scale mountains, continent-sized rivers, volcanoes, and ice ages. Discover the human story and how people have been changing the landscape for hundreds of years, using and shaping the land to meet their needs. Hear stories of shipwrecks, ghostly bagpipers, and a quarry that built Scotland's largest and wealthiest Abbey that gave birth to the Scottish Declaration of Independence.

Stop for a quick cuppa at Carlingheugh Bay, discussing how the innocent pebble can tell the story of many millions of years. Then, enjoy an easy amble back to the car park where there is time for a more general chat and discussion which takes you from Deep Time back to the present.

Stories of Stone looks to inspire a deeper connection with the Earth by making geology accessible to all.
