Red Trail


(Average user rating: unrated unrated)

About Red Trail

Follow the black way-markers on the Goat Fell Path until you meet the red markers which line the route of the Brodick Castle Woodland Trail.

An ongoing programme of rhododendron clearnace has opened up spectacular panoramic views of Brodick Bay.

How to get there:

Red Trail can be started from Cladach Car Park in Brodick Castle Wood which is part of Arran. Brodick is the nearest town or village.

Travel one mile north from Brodick along the A841. Cladach car park is on the right-hand side opposite the Wineport Restaurant.
