Coire Fhionn Lochan

Aka swim heaven. Arran north loop today so up to Lochranza then back over the String. I had seen reference to this Lochan so decided we would try to find it. So we left the bikes at Thundergay and headed up the path. It was quite a climb up, although all on a path. After about 45 minutes and several false summits we came to the beach in front of the Lochan which was curtained by mountains behind. Such a beautiful spot.

Extra is the view from the top of the String done in the opposite direction to yesterday. In that direction it’s a great climb, my kind of hill. Not too steep and I can just grind it out. Didn’t even need the granny gear that much!
