Island Hopping in Scotland Walking Tour 2021 Individual Self-Guided 8 Days / 7 Nights Scotland - Island Hopping in Scotland Walking Tour 2021 Individual Self-Guided 8 days / 7 nights This hiking vacation takes you through the Isles of Arran, and Islay. One of Scotland’s greatest scenic assets are its famous Western Isles. Often very remote, often a haven for wildlife and bird life, often very little explored by the tourist due to the lack of accommodation, limits the numbers of people who can visit. Our tour starts off on the Isle of Arran just off the west coast of Scotland and easily reached from Glasgow’s airports by train. Arran is known as Scotland in Miniature; this is so because the scenery has all that the whole of Scotland is famous for, dramatic coastlines of the west coast of Scotland, mountains and glens and rolling pastures to the south, mountains (as high as 950 m). After three days on Arran we have a day transferring by island hopping over to the Isle of Islay. Islay is a whisky lover’s paradise. The clean waters and air have made it a classic location for many famous malts. Such names as Oban, Isle of Jura, Bunnahahain, Bruichladdich, Laphroaic, Ardbeg, Bowmore to name but a few. Our last day is a fabulous day walking on Islay.

Here you take the ferry to Arran. Ferries cross several times a day to Arran and the trip lasts around 1 hour. Day 2: Goat fell circular walk Brodick - Sannox 16 km + 840 m - 840 m (option of a low level walk from Brodick - Sannox 11.8 km +150 m) Today your walk takes you past Brodick Castle and up the valley to the top of Goat Fell, Arran’s highest peak at 874 m. Then you descend down the neighbouring glen to Sannox. Take a coffee in a local hotel before your short bus ride back to Brodick. Day 3: Sannox to Lochranza 13km + 260 m A short transfer by public bus to Sannox. Today’s walk takes you along the rugged coastline from Sannox to Lochranza, mostly right on the seas edge. Lochranza is a remote hamlet of a few houses and a tiny ferry port where you catch the ferry to the mainland. Lochranza is very romantic with its ancient castle sitting not far from the coast and often the setting for a fabulous photo shot which is very typical Scottish. Lochranza also has its own whisky distillery. On today’s walk you can look for seals, porpoises and whales off shore. Transfer back by bus to Brodick. Day 4: Lamlash/Whiting Bay to Brodick 10 km + 150 m Whiting Bay 18.4 km + 150 m Start with a short transfer to Lamlash or Whiting Bay which is south of Brodick. If you start in Whiting bay you first set off around Kingscross point where there is an ancient cairn. You then follow the coastline around to Lamlash. If there is a high tide there is an inland route option. Once in Lamlash take the optional ferry to Holy Island, the home of a Buddhist Monks Monastery/Retreat. The walk follows the coastline north back to Brodick through rolling coastlines. Day 5: transfer to Islay – Port Askaig/Ballygrant Today you take the public bus with your luggage to Lochranza, across on the ferry to the Kintyre peninsula. Then a short bus transfer of 8 km to the other side of the peninsula before taking the ferry to Port Askaig on Islay. Once in Port Askaig, if you are booked into accommodation in Ballygrant then you shall take the public bus the short 5 km journey to your accommodation.

You have today a choice between three walks. There is none or limited public bus services on Sundays • Option 1: 21 km + 100 m One option today takes you north to Bunnahabhain and past the distillery before heading inland in a circular fashion to Ballygrant. From Ballygrant we take an east route back toward Port Askaig via the little Loch Ballygrant. • Option 2: 7 km Our second option is a shorter walk. First a short transfer by public bus to Bridgend where the walk starts. The walk explores Bridgend woods near to Islay House. A pretty flat walk around a pretty lake before following a narrow footpath from the woods. On route you will have a chance to visit a working woolen mill (if open). Return to Ballygrant/Port Askaig by public bus. • Option 3: 13 km + 150 m Our third option is on the other side of Islay but if you have any interest in Scottish whisky then it is well worth the journey across the island for the walk. Today first a journey by public bus to Port Ellen. Here your 3 distilleries walk starts along a tarmac path, you shall pass the distilleries, Laphroaig, Lagavulin and Ardbeg. You return back on the same path but as Port Ellen comes back into view you can turn off slightly uphill and do a small detour walk to visit there separate standing stones monuments. Return back to Ballygrant/Port Askaig by public bus • Option 4: 14 km + 30 m The forth option starts and finishes in Bowmore, the Islands main town and takes in Laggan Point. First today you take the public bus to Bowmore. Bowmore has a whisky distillery which is well worth a visit. After the visit take the walk mainly along tracks and some pathless grassy sections to Laggan point. Many chances to view bird life and sea life on this walk. Some chances for a detour to a nice sandy beach. Day 8: Departure Your Scotland island hopping holiday is now finished, a taxi will pick you up at 8:15 am to take you to Port Ellen for the 9:45 am ferry to Kennacraig where you can take a coach back to Glasgow. The earliest you can reach Glasgow is around 3:00 p.m. OK Cycle & Adventure Tours Inc. - 666 Kirkwood Ave - Suite B102 – Ottawa, Ontario Canada K1Z 5X9 www.okcycletours.com Toll Free 1-888-621-6818 Local 613-702-5350 Route Technical Characteristics: Route Profile: Moderate.

  • Four Facts About Whisky Casks Distillers Don't Want You to Know
    Malt Maniacs E-pistle #2010-08 By Oliver Klimek, Germany This article is brought to you by 'Malt Maniacs'; an international collective of more than two dozen fiercely independent malt whisky aficionados. Since 1997 we have been enjoying and discussing the pleasures of single malt whisky with like-minded whisky lovers from all over the world. In 2010 our community had members from 16 countries; The United Kingdom, Sweden, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, The U.S.A., Canada, India, Japan, Taiwan, Australia & South Africa. More information on: www.maltmaniacs.org . Four Facts About Whisky Casks Distillers Don't Want You to Know "All casks are different." This a commonplace and it's one of the basic rules all aspiring maltheads and apprentice whisky anoraks will learn rather early on after they have started their journey into the whisky wonderland. When you take the step from standard distillery expressions to single cask whiskies mainly bottled by independents you will discover a seemingly endless variety of malts that sometimes can have very different characteristics, even if they are made in the same distillery. In this E-pistle I would like to highlight a few aspects of whisky casks that for some strange reason do not get very much attention, even though their consequences are rather significant. 1. Seaweed? What Seaweed? Tasting notes of Islay malts usually feature descriptors like “seaweed”, “sea spray”, “Atlantic jetty” or the likes. We all know that Islay is both caressed and mistreated by the powers of the Irish Sea, so in a way it is not a surprise that we can find maritime flavours in Islay whisky.

  • Oban to Belfast
    Cruising Route: Oban and west Argyll to the Antrim coast and Belfast Lough This is a beautiful cruising ground with a combination of inshore and offshore sailing amid wonderful and varied scenery. The channels among the southern Hebrides offer a number of alternative routes. From Oban, the track inside the islands leads either down the Sound of Luing to Crinan or further south, or else via Cuan Sound to Kilmelford or Craobh. In these sounds – and indeed almost everywhere on this route – the tidal stream is the first consid- eration in passage planning. The tide runs very fast in Cuan Sound and in the Dorus Mor leading to Crinan, and at a significant rate in the Sound of Luing, gradually lessening down the Sound of Jura. Loch Craignish and Ardfern offer a pleasant and scenic side-trip. There are visitors’ moorings at Craighouse and Gigha. An alternative route south from Oban is offshore, via Colonsay and the Sound of Islay, with Port Askaig providing a possible stopover. The Sound of Islay is also a tidal gate, with five knot tides. It is worth remembering that working these tides to advantage can result in very fast passages! The marina at Port Ellen is only a few miles to the west whether coming east or west of Jura.

  • Kintour Landscape Survey Report
    DUN FHINN KILDALTON, ISLAY AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY DATA STRUCTURE REPORT May 2017 Roderick Regan Summary The survey of Dun Fhinn and its associated landscape has revealed a picture of an area extensively settled and utilised in the past dating from at least the Iron Age and very likely before. In the survey area we see settlements developing across the area from at least the 15 th century with a particular concentration of occupation on or near the terraces of the Kintour River. Without excavation or historical documentation dating these settlements is fraught with difficulty but the distinct differences between the structures at Ballore and Creagfinn likely reflect a chronological development between the pre-improvement and post-improvement settlements, the former perhaps a relatively rare well preserved survival.

The survey area is situated on the Ardtalla Estate within Kildalton parish in the south east of Islay (Figure 1) and survey work was undertaken in early April 2017.

  • Islay February 2019
    Islay February 2019 February 20th : Sandwich Bay to Islay The group left the Observatory at 5 a.m. and had a straightforward run up to Gatwick with the ever-efficient Airport Connections. Our Easyjet flight to Glasgow was delayed by an hour but the flight itself was quicker than scheduled – did the pilot really put his foot on the accelerator? At Glasgow Airport we met with Peter and the mini-bus was then duly collected from a large company based about 20 minutes away in Clydeside. Peter and Ken came back to the airport to collect the group and then we were on our way in dreich conditions out of the city and north along the shores of Loch Lomond, then off through the sea lochs and mountains of Argyll. We stopped for lunch at the Loch Fyne Centre and again for a short stretch of the legs at historic Inveraray and, near the journey’s end, at Tarbert. Here we saw the first ‘good’ birds of the trip in the form of 5 Black Guillemots out in the harbour. From there it was a short journey to the ferry terminal at Kennacraig and, with night fast approaching, there were some rather nice sunset effects through the now-lifting clouds. A Red-throated Diver was swimming around the jetty as the M. V. Isle of Arran appeared from the south to take us across to Islay. A smooth crossing, landing at Port Askaig, and then across the dark island to the hotel at Port Charlotte for a decent night’s sleep in this very comfortable hotel set overlooking the outer reaches of Loch Indaal.

  • Islay and Jura Road Traffic Speeds PDF 128 KB
    ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL MID ARGYLL, KINTYRE AND THE ISLANDS AREA COMMITTEE DEVELOPMENT & INFRASTRUCTURE September 2018 SERVICES Islay & Jura Road Traffic Speeds – Briefing Note 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 Speed Limits on the Local Road Network are governed by legislation and guidance which are summarised in the proposed policy document. The legislation and guidance have been established to regularise speed limits across the country to provide consistency of approach. 1.2 The speed of vehicles can be an emotive issue for communities that often generates intense local concern and debate. This can be due to the perception of what is an appropriate safe speed which can often differ greatly between, for example; drivers, pedestrians and pedal cyclists, many of whom live and work in the community. 1.3 A request has been received through Members for the consideration of alterations to speed limits at four locations, these being Ballygrant, Bruichladdich, Keills on Islay and Craighouse, Jura. Police Scotland have also indicated that there may be issues with drivers driving inappropriately from time to time. 1.4 Traffic Data Units (TDU) have been used to collect data at the above locations. The data for each site confirms that no further action is required by the Council. 1.5 We have shared this information with Police Scotland who have indicated that, on the basis of the recorded data, they have no concerns at these locations and do not intend any further action at this time. Notwithstanding this, normal sample enforcement will continue on the islands as Police Scotland consider appropriate. 2.0 INTRODUCTION 2.1 This report provides requested speed data for three locations on Islay and one on Jura.
