PLANS to improve visitor access to St Kilda have been announced as part of a ten-year strategy by the National Trust for Scotland to conserve the remote Scottish island.
Developed in conjunction with Historic Environment Scotland, NatureScot, Comhairle nan Eilean Siar and the Ministry of Defence, the plan seeks to conserve both the nature and history of St Kilda while also opening up opportunities for more people to experience the island.
The small archipelago sits 99 miles off the west coast of mainland Scotland and is one of only 39 mixed UNESCO World Heritage sites across the globe.
