Edinburgh East Wild Weekend Route

Route Overview: Starting in Brodick on the Isle of Arran and finishing on Mull, with multiple island hops in between and an excursion to Ardnamurchan point in the far west. A salty, sandy (+/- damp?) coastal experience, with plenty of up & down and of course, VIEWS! The rolling route cuts out some off-road climbing, but varies little from the main route. The optional rugged+ section is tough but glorious, inland from Oban to Glencoe. Tarbert, Tayvallich, Oban and Tobermory lie in between.
