Goat Fell

Posted by Stu (Home: Scotland | Residing in Kyoto, Japan) on 6 June 2007 in Landscape & Rural.

Goat Fell (marked as Goatfell by the Ordnance Survey) is the highest point on the Isle of Arran. At 874 metres (2,867 ft), it is one of four Corbetts on the island. The mountain, along with nearby Brodick Castle, is now owned by the National Trust for Scotland.
The name is believed to mean either 'Mountain of Wind' (from the Gaelic gaoth) or 'Goat Mountain' (from the Norse geita).
