The
Isle of Arran is the largest island in the Firth of Clyde and the
seventh largest island in Scotland.
Arran and Cumbrae are both popular holiday destinations and
served by car and passenger ferry services from the Scottish mainland.
Arran is mountainous in its northern half.
The "Arran
Circuit" is a popular ridge walk. The highest summit is Goat
Fell ( 2867ft, 874m - one of 4 Corbetts
). Arran has been described as "Scotland in miniature".
The circular, level, quiet road around Cumbrae is a pleasant cycle ride.
