The Isle of Arran is a small island in Southwest Scotland that offers a wealth of delights for those traveling on foot. 

The mountains in the North of the island are some of the most dramatic and serious to be found anywhere in Scotland. I am a fully insured and qualified mountain leader who can help you explore these peaks with confidence. Whether it is climbing Goatfell, the highest mountain on Arran, or walking along an exposed ridge at the more remote end of the range, there are many exciting goals and challenges on offer.

Away from the drama of the main ridge, there are numerous other walks of geological or historic interest, with opportunities to watch wildlife such as red deer, seals, hen harriers, and other rare birds.  Why not employ a local guide to show you a landscape that is steeped in history and bursting with life? Walking on Arran is a very enjoyable way to gain a different perspective and see the island at a more traditional pace. Visit the Guided Walks Page.

Getting here

Arran is a very special island, with a uniquely tranquil atmosphere for a destination that is so accessible.  The CalMac Ferry  port of Ardrossan is less than an hour from Glasgow and Ayr, with good links by rail and air. As the most Southerly of the major isles of the Scottish West Coast, Arran is also very easy to reach from the North of England.

Please take the time to browse these pages for details of guided walks, the Isle of Arran, and other essential information to help you plan and enjoy your stay.
