 ... not very densely populated, there is a great oppurtunity to see lots of inshore animals. Similarly the fact that it is surrounded by sea enables you to go looking for seals and sea otters etc. While i was there i saw many seals and think i did see a sea otter - but it was quite dark so am not very sure that was what i saw! There are a few shops there - a small factory outlet selling Arran mustards and Jams etc but the island is pretty much uncommercialised! WHERE TO STAY There are two Youth Hostels on the ...more

The Isle of Arran is a fairly small island off the west coast of Scotland. It boasts breathtaking scenery and beautiful walks! WHAT TO DO THERE! The Isle of Arran is a perfect place for both experienced and inexperienced walkers. The beautiful coastline is a perfect start for any walk, with many coastal paths that are easy to follow and have fairly even terrain! However if your feeling a little more adventurous you could always venture into the mountain ranges or climb the highest one there - Goatfell! - you get to the top of that and you feel as if your on top of the world! It is fairly difficult to get lost there because during most of your walks ...

The Isle of Arran lies on the West coast of Scotland. It can be easily reached by ferry from the main port Addrossan Harbour.

The main 'town' is more like a large village, you can easily walk from one end of Brodick to the other in 1/2 hour, or less if you walk quickly! The first sight you will see is the mountains, the most obvious being Goat Fell, it takes three hours to climb to the summit and 3 hours back down, but well worth it if you want to view some of the prettiest sights in the world. ...

I went to Scotland in last summer. I went there by train and all the views I saw there were wonderful, when I was travelling by train. I can say that nowhere made me excited me before I have been there. When I got out of train station and saw Edinburgh, I could not believe my eyes. That city was real wonderful and I felt as if I was in middle age. The city stands in the same way with middle age. The tour I joined was a kind of trackin tour. We went to country side and onto the mountains instead of cities. Although we have been to the cities we did not stay a lot on the cities. I saw the best views in Scotland. Especially in Skye Island, mountains create one of ...
