Tips from the Community
The main trail passes a few metres from this secluded woodland loch, which is encircled by a footpath In calm conditions the water can be beautifully reflective here. It's a good place to spot dragonflies in summer and both waterfowl and woodland birds.

The first hill is quite steep with packed and lose rocks. Not easy, but when you get to the top, the views are absolutely incredible and the riding is fun.
