Info

In the sky island of a mountain, above all kinds of strange peaks and rocks, coupled with clouds, very charming, standing on the mountain to look out is another beauty. It used to be part of the island of Hoy, and then under the constant impact of the waves, the surrounding rocks gradually collapsed, leaving only the sea erosion column standing alone, a few centuries later. The 719 meter high old man's stone stands abruptly in the flat highland grassland, the widest part is only 27 meters, so it is often used as an important road sign by the sailing ships in ancient times. It will take about 3 hours to climb to the top of the old man peak and get down again. If you buy a day ticket, just climb up and watch it and sit down for a bus. When it rains, the mountain road is slippery and hard to walk. It is suggested to give up climbing.
