A weekend of guided mountain running on the spectacular isle of Arran, with its panoramic views over fell and sea (accommodation included). Arran is often described as 'Scotland in Miniature' on account of it's varied terrain and stunning beauty - curving coastline, rocky mountain peaks, quiet beaches and island forests. The mountains are a dramatic granite playground with some of the best trails in Scotland. Our exact routes will depend on the weather and specific aspirations of the group - but we will aim to summit all four of the island's iconic Corbetts in a single weekend: Goat Fell; the highest point on the island at 874m Cir Mhor; the most impressive and iconic Corbett in a dramatic rocky setting Caisteal Abhail; the northermost Corbett on Arran, also known as the 'sleeping warrior' on account of its profile Beinn Tarsuinn; the southernmost Corbett and home to the striking 'Old Man of Tarsuinn', a rocky outcrop, shaped uncannily like the head of a man! Our award-winning events provide a solo-friendly and supportive environment, so book alone or with friends, and join us on the wonderful Isle of Arran. We recommend that you are able to comfortably run 10km on trail and have some experience of fell-running or a reasonable level of hill-walking fitness before attending, as this will enable you to get the most out of your experience in the hills with us. We will however, be taking a relaxed and sociable pace and won't be racing around! Expect to walk all the climbs and jog/run the 'flats and downs'. To find out more about what's involved visit: www.girlsonhills.com/faqs We will email you at the beginning of event week to confirm final details. This email will also include a kit list and advice on where to meet us. We will meet-up to check kit and discuss final plans for each day before we start our run. See below for travel and logistics: ACCOMMODATION This weekend includes three nights accommodation at the National Trust's Shore Lodge bunkhouse, situated in the grounds of Brodick Castle. You can expect basic but comfortable self-catering accommodation with communal bunkrooms in a conveniently located lodge - complete with wood-burning stove, fully equipped kitchen and dining room, wash basins and showers, plus electric central heating. LOGISTICS Easily accessible from Glasgow, the bustling town of Brodick is reached by ferry from Adrossan.

You will need to book an outward ferry journey on Friday 11th April and a return ticket for Monday 14th April. We suggest that you book your ferry early. We will run a mountain route on both Saturday and Sunday (at a leisurely and sociable pace, with plenty of stops!) Unless you wish, you do not need to have a vehicle with you on the island (you can book foot passenger only). We provide minibus shuttles whilst on Arran to reduce environmental impact and pressure on busy parking areas.
