Orkney Islands Map

This road map of the Orkney Islands covers the full archipelago at 1:145,000 scale, produced from Ordnance Survey Road Map data. Orkney comprises over 70 islands, of which around 20 are inhabited, lying off the north coast of mainland Scotland across the Pentland Firth. The islands hold an extraordinary concentration of Neolithic monuments — including the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Skara Brae, the Ring of Brodgar, and the Stones of Stenness — alongside dramatic coastal scenery, exceptional birdlife, and a rich Norse and Scottish heritage.

What the Map Shows

The map shows the full Orkney archipelago, including Mainland Orkney, Hoy, South Ronaldsay, Westray, Sanday, Stronsay, Shapinsay, and the outer islands. Road networks across all inhabited islands are clearly shown, along with inter-island ferry routes. Key settlements including Kirkwall (the capital, home to St Magnus Cathedral) and Stromness (the main ferry port from Scrabster and Gills Bay) are marked. Tourist attractions, airports, and ferry routes — including the NorthLink service from Aberdeen — are noted. The Churchill Barriers connecting South Ronaldsay and Burray to the Mainland are visible as a key feature.

How will my files be supplied?

Map files are supplied in PDF format and are available to download immediately after payment has completed on the Thank You page through a displayed download link. If you miss this the download link is also emailed to you, so make sure you can access the email address entered at checkout.

Help! I've clicked the download link and I am getting an error or it's telling me the 'link has expired'. Can you help?

Usually you can see a download starting at the top right of the browser page, but it is easy to miss. Most PC's and laptops are set up to send downloaded files to the Download folder on the device so it's always worth checking there. If you can't find it get in touch and we'll help get you the file.

Printing the Map Files

Do you supply Printed Maps?

No, we only supply OS mapping in digital format - most often in PDF format. This is easy to open and use on most electronic devices and is also very easy to print from.

Can I have my map files printed?

We don't offer a printing service, but you can take your map file to a local printing company, or send it by email to a national company to have the file printed to your specification.

More Printing Queries

Can I change the print size when I get the map file printed?

We do not recommend changing the print size. All the map files have been created to be printed at Actual Size. This keeps it easy when it comes to printing, just print it at the size it's supposed to be. If the file is scaled then it could become blurry, blocky or otherwise illegible.

Yes, typically you are licenced to print one copy of the map from the file purchase. If you want more prints please increase the number of items you want to purchase in the Quantity box.

Can I use the map or parts of it online?

No, you can not publish the file online without the correct licence. This can be obtained from OS, please contact us for more information.
