Scotland's Highlands & Islands - Orkney & Shetland (PDF Chapter) Lonely Planet

For the Vikings, the jaunt across the North Sea from Norway was as easy as a stroll down to the local mead hall and they soon controlled these windswept, treeless archipelagos, laying down longhouses alongside stony remains of ancient prehistoric settlements.

Coverage includes: Orkney, Kirkwall, East Mainland to South Ronaldsay, West & North Mainland, Stromness, Hoy, Northern Islands, Shetland, Lerwick, Bressay & Noss, Central & West Mainland, South Mainland, North Mainland, and The North Isles.
