Arran trails are situated on one of Scotland's most southern islands, on the Isle of Arran in the Firth of Clyde. The island is 167 square miles and is the 7th largest Scottish island with a small population of around 5000 folks. The community of riders is strong and loyal. The location as well as the community leads to something a bit different and I guess a bit special.

There are five trails for different abilities:

Easy/ Moderate

Castle Route (10km route) - hilly forest roads, rough tracks and trails. Good for MTB novices with decent fitness

Glencloy Route - (10km route) -similar to the above

Hard - Technical proficient mountain bikers only

Clauchlands Route (18km route) - hilly single-track trails for proficient and experienced mountain bikers
Laggan Route (25km route) - similar to the above

Extreme - Technical / Enduro proficient & fit

Arran Classic Route (35km route) - difficult and severe. For experienced technical riders with a high level of fitness. The terrain is mountainous, granite and rocky and there are a decent number of gnarly rock slabs and drop-offs for the technical mountain bike rider.
