Download ItineraryJoin us on a fantastic walking trip that explores the beautiful Isle of Arran. Located off the west coast of Scotland, lapped by turquoise water and with mountains that rise high with rugged, rocky peaks – this stunning isle, home to a little bit of everything, is often referred to as ‘Scotland in Minature.’
Joined by an expert Wilderness guide, spend an unforgettable week discovering its many instances of natural beauty. Hike up its highest mountain, ribbon your way along its silvery shores, visit caves, neolithic ruins, a historic castle and a local distillery.
Having been continuously inhabited since the early Neolithic period, the island’s history, heritage and culture run deep. With a landscape peppered with standing stones, hut circles and hidden chambered cairns, it’s an engaging and evocative place to explore on foot. Also home to incredible wildlife, take the opportunity to look out for seals, otters, red squirrels, golden eagles and an abundance of red deer.
As the amber hues of sunset cast a deep, golden glow across the sea, moor and mountainside, relax each evening in charming accommodation, enjoying fresh seasonal food and warm hospitality. With every day curated to unfold at the ideal pace, enjoy the magic of Scotland distilled into one perfect package.
