Summary:

Our Isle of Arran Climbing and Walking trip is a great way to experience the best adventures on the Island.

A typical itinerary might be Day 1: Rock Climbing Granite multipitch in Glen Rosa, Day 2: Summit Goatfell and some basic scrambling around into Glen Rosa. Day 3: Glen Sannox Walk.

You will spend three days exploring different parts of the island with a Mountaineering and Climbing Instructor.

We need to get a ferry over from the mainland which is fairly cheap as a foot passenger. A bicycle is ideal form of transport. It is possible to take a vehicle over at a cost. May or September are ideal times for this trip to run. It can be run in summer months but beware the midges!!! The price does not include travel/ferry of camp fees.
