The Black Cave on Bennan Head is the largest cave on the Isle of Arran. It measures 80 feet (24 m) high, 40 feet (12 m) wide and 100 feet (30 m) deep. Early archaeologists claimed to find arrow-heads and flakes of flint mingled with whelk and limpet shells in the cave, indicating that it was used by prehistoric man. However, the boulder-strewn surface of the cave has led others to doubt this. Although, it has been used as a place of worship in the past.

Vandring

The last 500m to the Black Cave you have to climb over scree, you need good shoes and surefootedness! At the end you walk along the rock face, really not for a "walk"!
