Last Friday afternoon saw pupils from Tarbert Academy join on work experience while on Saturday morning there were 18 volunteers, and a mammoth effort by all moved six to eight tonnes of gravel to create new paths at the castle.
Robert McPjail, trust secretary said: "The new and improved paths will enhance the visitor experience as they explore the ruins.
"Permission has been granted by Historic Environment Scotland for further work on access routes and we have made arrangements to complete this before Easter.
"We also hope to start the long and detailed discussions with HES on further archaeological exploration in the coming year.
“It was great to see community volunteers rally round to progress improvements."
