Perched on the hill top with great views
Giants' Graves的点评
点评：After viewing the Glenashdale Falls you can continue on the path up to where you meet the forestry road turn left and follow the road for around 20 minutes and you will come to a path on your left which leads to a clearing on the hilltop where the Giants' Graves are.
The forestry track allows you great views over Whiting Bay and Holy Isle.
The Giants' Graves are all that remains of two Neolithic chambered tombs in the style the Clyde group, with many many examples scattered across Arran. They are between 5,700 and 5000 years old making them some of the oldest remains on the islands. There is an information board with their history. also watch out for the rock with a number of inscriptions of "historical graffiti"
Today the tombs are mostly ruined with the remains buried in the turf which covers much of them. However, they still make for an interesting visit and again the site offers great views over the bay.
The path then continues past the graves and begins to descend back to the river path and car parks. The zig-zag descent becomes quite steep and again with the rain starting was wet and slippery in places. Stopping at some of the higher switchbacks you again get some excellent views of Whiting Bay and Holy Isle.
If the weather is not good or there has been rain good walking shoes would be the best. However if the weather is fine it is not such a difficult path to negotiate.
The circular path is well worth a couple of hours and both attractions are worth it.

翻译：观赏完格伦纳什代尔瀑布后，您可以继续沿着小路前行，直到遇到林道，左转，沿着这条路走大约20分钟，您会在左侧看到一条小路，通往山顶的一片空地，那里是巨人墓地的所在地。
沿着林道，您可以欣赏到怀廷湾和圣岛的壮丽景色。
巨人墓地是两座克莱德群风格的新石器时代墓室墓葬的唯一遗迹，阿伦岛上还有很多这样的墓葬。它们距今已有5700至5000年的历史，是岛上最古老的遗迹之一。这里有一块介绍它们历史的信息板。还要注意刻有“历史涂鸦”的岩石。
如今，这些墓葬大多已毁，遗骸埋在覆盖大部分墓葬的草皮中。然而，参观它们仍然是一次有趣的体验，而且从这里可以欣赏到海湾的壮丽景色。
这条小路继续穿过墓地，开始下降回到河边小路和停车场。蜿蜒的下坡变得相当陡峭，而且随着雨水的再次出现，有些地方变得湿滑。在一些较高的之字形路段停下来，你再次欣赏到怀廷湾和圣岛的壮丽景色。
如果天气不好或下雨，一双舒适的步行鞋是最好的选择。不过，如果天气好的话，这条路走起来也并不难。
这条环形小路非常值得花几个小时走完，两个景点都值得一看。
