Isle of Arran: Brodick to Lamlash Coastal Path
Stirling
This dog friendly coastal circuit connects Arran's two largest villages, Brodick and Lamlash, following the shoreline south past Corriegills Point before looping back through the wooded Fairy Glen. The route offers constantly changing views across Lamlash Bay to Holy Island, with sandy stretches and rocky foreshore that make it a varied and enjoyable outing for dogs and walkers alike.
Dogs can be off lead for much of the coastal section, though care is needed near grazing fields on the inland return. The path beyond Corriegills Point can be wet and may flood briefly at high tide, so checking tide times is advisable. Parking is available at Brodick ferry terminal or the village car park. There are shops, cafes, and public toilets in both Brodick and Lamlash. The terrain is mostly good paths and tracks, with one muddy section near the coast.
