The Old Man of Stoer is a 60 metres (197 ft) high sea stack of Torridonian sandstone in Sutherland, Highland, Scotland, close to the Marilyn Sidhean Mor, the villages of Culkein and Stoer and the nearby Point of Stoer. It is a popular climbing route.
Access can be gained (during calm seas and at low tide) to the plinth upon which the stack sits by a short swim across the inlet separating the stack from the mainland. A Tyrolean traverse can then be arranged using natural protection at both ends. Using careful ropework the second climber can be brought across without getting him or herself (or the gear) wet. Climbers should be aware that a sixty metre rope is required to safely make the abseil from the summit rocks to the plinth in one go.
Northern Fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) inhabit the stack and nearby sea cliffs, and can be hazardous to climbers if disturbed.
