Did a half-Ironman on Arran once - 90 lengths of the hotel pool, once round the island on the bike, then run from Brodick to Corrie and back. I was a bit out of it...

How far is this site from the path up Goat Fell? We are heading there in the summer hoping to climb the mountain.

It's a fair traipse if you walk back round the road. Not too bad if you walk down the burn to the castle gate.

Best way though is....
....see the picture in the original link? Walk up the burn and then straight up the far side of that plantation. it flattens off at the top and you're only a quarter mile or so off the path. It gets the first section over with much quicker than the winding FC track from the castle.

Oh toddy Whats pitchstone when its at home?

hi stooboy, been to arran a few times and have stayed at rosa once or twice. great site in a lovely spot, very basic, which is fine by me!. go out of season and its fairly isolated, had the place to myself this time of year. not too far from goat fell if you fancy a little hike either. recommended.
