Goat Fell (Scottish Gaelic: Gaoitbheinn)[1] is the highest point on the Isle of Arran.
The most commonly used route, a constructed path of just over 3 miles (5 km) in length, starts from near Brodick Castle in Cladach.
Initially the path leads up through the forested grounds of the castle, passing many rhododendron bushes.
At just under 1,000 ft (300 m) above sea level the path leaves the forestry, and the route continues through bare moorland, reaching the summit by way of the east ridge of the mountain.
Finally, the western ridge drops down to a bealach known as The Saddle, before climbing again towards the summit of Cìr Mhòr.
