6 DAYS WALKING / 7 OVERNIGHT STAYS

If you are a fit walker with well worn in boots, then you may wish to take on the challenge of a six day walk. Having walked the trail ourselves on a few occasions, then we can advise that it is definitely achievable, though a fair challenge in adverse weather conditions and with a bit of boulder hopping on some sections

Day 2	Brodick to Sannox (8 miles/13 km)	The choice of a hill climb over the shoulder of Goat Fell (optional trek to the top) with spectacular views or take the lower alternative on main road & cycle track
Day 3	Sannox to Lochranza (9 miles/14.5 km)	Many points of interest on this lovely day along the coast comprising of a mixture of path and beach walking with some manageable and fun boulder hopping
