'It is an excellent guide, really detailed, which is what you need on the rocky terrain of Arran. It will attract people to visit Arran for a longer period to tackle not just the great ridges of the NE corner but the many easier walks to be found in the rest of the Island.

There are many full-page photographs, which emphasise the rough and rocky character of the island. There is also the usual full introduction, which includes a short history.'

(Irish Mountain Log Magazine, Summer 2006)

'A 2nd edition of Dillon's excellent guide to walking in Arran with routes marked on extracts of Ordnance Survey maps, a pleasing layout and stunning photos that really capture the essence if the isle.'
