Pocket Mountains - Arran

Lying between the Kintyre Peninsula and the Ayrshire coast, the Isle of Arran is a wonderful microcosm of the Scottish mainland. With such a diverse landscape, there are walks to suit all aspirations – from rugged expeditions in the northern peaks to pleasant wildlife walks on the quiet beaches that fringe the rolling farmland of the south.

This guide contains 40 of the best walks on the island. Some will occupy you for a few hours, some will take all day and some can be linked together to form wonderful multi-day adventures. The start points for all the walks can be accessed by public transport.
