Geocache Description:

Lovely walk to a few new caches, stunning scenery. Cache is an easily found container...

Holborn Head is a headland on the north-facing Atlantic coast of Caithness, in the Highland area of Scotland. The point of Holborn Head is at 58°37′23″N 03°32′06″W (grid reference ND10857155). The name Holborn appears Norse in origin, meaning hillfort, and the headland may be the Tarvedunum promotorium noted by Ptolemy. At the tip lies the remains of a promontory fort. A walk around the headland can be accessed through a gate next to the Principal Keeper's House. There are stiles and bridges, which allow access to the unfenced off promontory of Holborn Head itself. There are clear views over to Dunnet Head and to the Orkney Islands. This cache is beside the stunning Clett Stack, enjoy.. This is a gorgeous but dangerous , please be careful.
