Arran Coastal Way (1) [PRIVATE -Copyright track claim is incorrect] [10:04]
A £25.00 open return from Glasgow enables the return train and Calmac ferry service to Brodick (and up to a month on the island) from where the Arran Coastal Way beckons.

The island is cut in half by the Highland Boundary Fault, a geological division that makes the north rugged and hilly and host to some superb mountains, whereas the south is more gentle and lower lying.
