Stunning spot at the top of the Carrick Hills providing panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, the Firth of Clyde, and the Isle of Arran. It stands at an elevation of 670 ft (204 m). On a clam night, this would make an excellent wild camping or bivvy spot, with views in all directions to wake up to.
