Summer Mountain Walks

Arran is blessed with small but exciting peaks that afford magnificent views. The highest is Goatfell, at 874m, it is one of four Corbetts on Arran (the other three being Caisteal Abhail, Cir Mhor and Beinn Tarsuinn). All are accessible for hill walkers, although many of the connecting ridges travel through dramatic and often serious terrain. A day out in the mountains of Arran is a unique and special experience to be treasured.

If you wish, we can add to your day by seeking out some iconic wildlife, teaching you mountain navigation, or visiting one of the many World War Two air crash sites. Please get in touch, and we can discuss a day that is tailored completely to you.

£190 for a group of 1-4 people.

Arran Winter Days

Winter walking on Arran is is a wonderful adventure with some of the most breath-taking scenery in Scotland.

A typical winter day would cover some of the basics of winter travel and equipment use. Weather permitting, we would aim to include a mountain summit. You will need to bring some boots suitable for a crampon (Lucy can recommend where these can be rented on the mainland if you don’t have your own). Crampons and ice axes are supplied.

Please be aware that winter conditions on Arran are as transient as they can be rewarding. For this reason, we recommend a flexible approach if you are booking a long time in advance. No previous experience is required, but participants must have a reasonable base level of fitness.

£200 for a group of 1-4 people.
