Overview

This is a coastal walk with a mixture of paths, fields, grass with stepping stones, some of it through ferns and some stiles, We walk along to Claughland point where we join a a wider track and we get superb views of the Holy Isle and seals are a very common sight.  We continue towards Lamlash and we will have lunch on the outskirts.

The return stretch starts with a gentle climb on the pavement until we reach the Lamlash Golf Club where we join a well established path which runs parallel to the road until it moves slightly away through the forest. The path is undulating and eventually brings us to the outskirts of Brodick where we will walk along the seafront to take us back to the ferry.
