Clauchland Hills Isle of Arran
Leaving East Kilbride at 6am to travel by coach to Addrossan on the Clyde Coast, here we catch the ferry to The Isle of Arran.
The ferry trip takes about an hour. After arriving at Brodick Pier, we headed straight into our walk. We left Brodick by the Lamlash road then turned left of the main road onto a minor road,this took us to the point where we started our climb into the Clauchland Hills this gave us uninterupted views over Broddick Goatfell & Lamlash Bay. We continued our climb via a costal path until we reached the top, here we had great views over The Holy Isle.
We continued our walk over heather plantations and along the edge of forests and returned to Brodick via Glen Cloy and past Auchrannie to enter the main road just at the golf coarse.
Our weather today was good, although we had a few small showers of rain it was quite warm
Our social stop was spent sitting in the garden of one of Brodick's local pubs not far from the ferry terminal. Another lovely walk
