In pictures: Stepping up trail tourism in Caithness

Whaligoe is a stop on the John o’Groats Trail, which stretches for 147 miles (236km) from Inverness to John o’Groats.

The Association of Northern Trails Scotland charity had the new crossing installed at an area which gets muddy and slippery in wet weather.

The area is popular with visitors, but parking at Whaligoe is limited and the stretch of Caithness coastline is also dominated by high cliffs.

Wind and rain can bring added challenges and comedian Billy Connolly, visiting on a blustery day for his TV show World Tour of Scotland, described it as a place where waterfalls went up rather than down.
