Arran:
Goatfell 874m
North Goatfell 818m
Mullach Buidhe 819m


   




Starting from Corrie, some 5 km north of Brodick. Here you can spot seals in the water if your'e lucky. This very day people have even seen whales.
The ferry leaves Brodick for Ardrossan on the mainland. Here from 300m altitude.







In the other direction is Goatfell, 874m, now visible to the left and North Goatfell,
818m, to the right.
I choose the path leading to a saddlepoint between North Goatfell and Mullach Buidhe, 819m.





It's up here, on some 750m, you get a "moonlandshape" of rectangular rock formations. Cir Mhor, 799m to the left and Casteal Abhail, 859m to the right.





A look down the Glen Sannox valley, leading northeast to the sea. To the south the Glen Rosa valley leads out of the mountains.






A peak with no name on my map, 834m logged on the gps, between the saddlepoint and Mullach Buidhe. Here it's visible from the way to North Goatfell.
The man himself, on the main summit of Goatfell. You could see Northern Ireland one hour before I came up, but now the visibility has declined in that direction.







Brodick Bay with Brodick. More in the background you can see Lamlash Bay and
Holy Island.
